But Eclipse doesn't open.

bash: /usr/bin/eclipse: Permission denied

Edit :

I see a little error in that procedure.

Show the output of

ls -l /usr/bin/eclipse

if it is not executable, do

sudo chmod +x /usr/bin/eclipse

Il gives an error of unquoted string, edit it

sudo nano /usr/bin/eclipse

and add a double quote at end of "$@, that should read "$@"
