[seshadri_sampath]

Hi,
Im trying to execute a simple Hello World program using the following parameters :
/opt/j2se-1.3.1/bin/java -ms500m -mx2500m testing
The environment is Solaris 2.6 ( SunOs 5.6) . Also increased the size of the data segment limit to more than 3 Gig.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
The error message is as :
$ /opt/j2se-1.3.1/bin/java -ms500m -mx2500m testing
Error occurred during initialization of VM
Could not reserve enough space for object heap
Regds,
Sesh
