This problem was when trying to start via the bat file - no errors here. When installing as a service - even with 1640m - the error thrown is: [2008-01-11 10:41:48] [info] Running Service... [2008-01-11 10:41:48] [info] Starting service...

Lowering the allocated memory to the jvm, for example to --JvmMx 1024 allows the service to run properly. Any thoughts?

Are there any errors in the log? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi, When trying to run magnolia 3.01EE on tomcat 5.5 on Windows Server 2003, if I allocate more than -Xmx1640m in Catalina.bat, tomcat will not even attempt to start up, stating that the CATALINA_HOME environmental variable is not set up. I don't think this is the problem though, as all memory allocation of 1640m and below result in correct startup, and 1641m and above results in no startup. Any ideas? Are there some operating system settings that will allow me to throw a lot more memory at tomcat?
