han, it's not reset in the build. However, a few tasks are forked by maven, so they do not inherit your environment settings.
For those cases you might try to export MAVEN_OPTS=...

But the same error occur. Upgrading -Xmx and -XX:MaxPermSize may solve the out of memory problem, but the point is the environment variable MAVEN_OPTS got changed (from "-Xmx1024m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m" to "-Xmx512m") during geronimo build, and my setting doesn't take effect to solve the out of memory. Is MAVEN_OPTS reset somewhere when building geronimo? On Mon, Jul 5, 2010 at 5:38 PM, Mark Struberg <[email protected]> wrote: same here, upgrading to PermGenSpace of 512m did help.

JAVA_OPTS -Xms256m -Xmx1024m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m 2010/7/5 han hongfang <[email protected]> Hi, I'm trying to build geronimo server trunk with sun jdk 1.6.0_20 on my winXP. I have this environment variable set. MAVEN_OPTS = -Xmx1024m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m Before issue the build command, I echo this variable in command prompt window, and I can see the value is exactly what I have set (-Xmx1024m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m). Then I issue the build command (i.e., mvn clean install) in the root dir of trunk, the build gets failed in serveral minutes with error msg indicates out of memory. [INFO] Compilation failure Failure executing javac, but could not parse the error: The system is out of resources. Consult the following stack trace for details. java.lang.OutOfMemoryError at java.util.ArrayList.newElementArray(Unknown Source) at java.util.ArrayList.growAtEnd(Unknown Source) at java.util.ArrayList.add(Unknown Source) ..... When I echo the environment variable again, but its value changes to "-Xmx512m". Does somebody know what happened to MAVEN_OPTS? Why its value changes after build command? TIA. -- Best regards, Han Hong Fang -- Lei Wang (Rex) rwonly AT apache.org -- Best regards, Han Hong Fang
