Hello all, I'm trying to override the default PermSize and MaxPermSize values in the JVM due to some OutOfMemory errors we were getting recently, but I don't appear to be able to set this in the Tomcat Service Properties (on Windows).
I have tried adding: -XX:PermSize=128m -XX:MaxPermSize=160m to the "Java options" section in the "Java" tab of the Tomcat Service configuration dialog, but this prevents the service from starting, simply listing: [409 javajni.c] [error] CreateJavaVM Failed [930 prunsrv.c] [error] Failed initializing java C:\tomcat-5.5.12\bin\bootstrap.jar [1179 prunsrv.c] [error] ServiceStart returned 2 In the service log. I have also tried adding: -Dcatalina.opts=-XX:PermSize=128m -XX:MaxPermSize=160m (I saw this on another post somewhere). This appears to do nothing as the MemoryPoolMXBean for the Perm Gen memory pool still reports a max size of 64m. I have also tried setting an environment variable under JAVA_OPTS for the same config (I saw this mentioned somewhere too); but again nothing. Anyone know how I can configure the JVM under a Windows (service) installation of Tomcat to change the Initial/Max PermSize? Seems to me the first option should work but crashes the JVM. I am using: jdk1.5.0_04 tomcat-5.5.12 Windows XP SP2 Thanks. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/CreateJavaVM-Failed-when-setting-PermSize-t1423415.html#a3837141 Sent from the Tomcat - User forum at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
