Aptana Studio 3 Doesn't Run in Debian Squeeze KDE

I have just installed Aptana Studio 3 on a fresh 64 bit Debian Squeeze KDE system. When I try to run it, I get a bouncing aptana icon and then nothing happens. The splash screen never appears.

Web search found that a Spanish-speaking user had the same problem but never received an answer. http://foro.ubuntu-guia.com/Instalacion-Aptana-Studio-3-En-Debian-Testing-KDE-64-Bits-td4025304.html

Aptana Studio is a version of the Eclipse IDE that has python development support built into it. I tried installing eclipse and openjdk to see if I was missing pre-requisites. 

$ sudo apt-get install -y eclipse

However it doesn't help.

Does anyone have thoughts on resolving this issue?
