Hi.., Patch 20 was supposed to fix the memory leak issues and they have fixed couple of defects as well. But anyways, if we are getting java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space, then its always preferred to first try to change the Xms and Xmx values. I am sure that -Xms 1024 and-Xmx 1024 will revolve the issue or atlease enhance the performance. If the performance is poor, you may consider to increase the values by 512 or 1024 again. Hope this resolves the issue for you. Kind Regards, Mahesh

In the Servelet directory (i.e. c:\Program Files\New Atlanta\ServletExec AS\se- ) In the STARTSERVLETEXEC.bat file "c:\Program Files\j2sdk1.4.2_13\bin\java" -Xms512m -Xmx512m -classpath You will need to ADD at least the maximum (e.g. -Xmx512m) memory allocation specification. I did the minimum (e.g. -Xms512m) and maximum. Good luck.

Particurly if you have no other applications on the Midtier box you might want to simply go up to 1024M. 512M is perfectly reasonable too. I would also recommend that you don't directly edit the VMSettings, but use the admin web page: http://locahost/servlet/admin I have had issues where manually edited changes were ignored or overwritten.

If you have the guide, take a look in there. I might be thinking 7.x also. -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of L. J.

Old server is a 1.4GHz with 2GB Ram...new box is 2.6GHz with 4GB Ram. Both boxes are same version of software...minimal config (if any) on ServletExec. On the new web server we started seeing these errors [Fri May 18 13:16:36 MDT 2007] java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space [Fri May 18 13:16:36 MDT 2007] ServletExec: caught exception - java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space About the only thing I have been able to do was restart the entire server to get it to work again. I found an article that said to look in the VMSettings.perf file for the line maxHeapSize It recommended increasing its setting....well I did have a VMSettings.perf file...but it only contained the lines version=1 systemOut=com.newatlanta.servletexec.SESystemOutputStream systemErr=com.newatlanta.servletexec.SESystemOutputStream So I checked the old server and the exact same thing....so now I'm confused how my new server with faster processing power and more memory is having memory issues where my old one wasn't. So...I added the following line to the perf file maxHeapSize=128000 (this particular post's recommendation) But I just got another of the errors (although doesn't seem to be down like it was before)...recommendations on how large that maxHeapSize value should be? BTW...this is all custom application development...0 OOTB apps. This server will eventually also house the production App as well....what is the default size?....should I take it to 512MB? I eagerly anticipate your recommendations ________________________________________________________________________ _______ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org ARSlist:"Where the Answers Are" ________________________________________________________________________ ____ ___ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org ARSlist:"Where the Answers Are" ________________________________________________________________________ ____ ___ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org ARSlist:"Where the Answers Are" -- No virus found in this incoming message.
