Wouldn't you need to install Java? The error message from Eclipse seems
to be:

This means either that you need to install Java in your eclipsetrader
folder, or you need to install Java via a Debian package. Either should
work. I guess that if you have 'already' installed Java, I think you
must have installed it somewhere other than the two locations quoted
above. I suppose you could also try tweaking your PATH to suit wherever
it is that you installed Java.
