Specified VM install not found: type Standard VM, name jre6

Some times when we are trying to run build.xml using ant in eclipse it will gives an error “Specified VM install not found: type Standard VM, name jre6”

There is a simple solution for this just delete the launch file of that project.

Solution

Delete the file from the location given below

"<Your eclipse workspace location>\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.debug.core\.launches\<projectname>.xml.launch"

Finally restart your eclipse.

Hurray !!! now your problem solved. :)
