There is another option JAVA_OPTS. Trying setting this and see if it works.

Here is what I have tried: 1) Set an environment variable named CATALINA_OPTS = -Xms128m -Xmx384m Neither service nor command line start seem to acknowledge... 2) Added CATALINA_OPTS = ... to startup.bat Still nothing... 3) Went into registry, added JVM Options for -Xmx and -Xms... per the instructions at Alexandria Software Service still doesn't seem to use the new values. Anyone know what I am doing wrong? And, what is the best way to tell if my changes have taken effect? Right now, I am using Java code in my webapp to see what the used, free and max memory values are. I have done a lot of searching on the Internet, and this seems to be the appropriate thing to do, but I want to verify that it is working. I am getting out of memory errors, and am trying to bump up the heap limit to try and alleviate them. Thanks so much for any advice!
