Try running eclipse with eclipse -clean command line option.

quoting documentation: if set to "true", any cached data used by the OSGi framework and eclipse runtime will be wiped clean. This will clean the caches used to store bundle dependency resolution and eclipse extension registry data. Using this option will force eclipse to reinitialize these caches.

this have helped me a few times before.

I've had this problem many times and each time I ended up restoring my workspace from backup and importing projects. When I decided I've had enough, I performed a binary search and found the culprit. The solution is to delete the file workspace/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.core.resources/.snap.
