Okay - I've gone ahead, uninstalled the distro from Ubuntu, installed Tomcat 6.0.16 and I'm having problems running out of memory. My catalina.out file contains the lines
at org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap.start(Bootstrap.java:288) at org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap.main(Bootstrap.java:413) Caused by: java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space and the application says it needs 512MB, I have 1GB on the server and it says that you can use up to 70% of the memory before it gets starved. So I edited the /etc/environment contents and ended up with this more /etc/environment PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games" ANT_HOME="/usr/share/ant" JAVA_HOME="/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun" JAVA_OPTS="${JAVA_OPTS} -Djava.awt.headless=true -Xms512M -Xmx512M -XX:PermSize=256M -XX:MaxPermSize=256M and I rebooted the machine, but I'm still getting the error. I don't know how to check and see if it took the arguments correctly, but when I look at http://myserver:8080/manager/status I see JVM Free memory: 23.34 MB Total memory: 63.56 MB Max memory: 63.56 MB What am I doing wrong?
