Memory error on RAD

[Raksha Mishra]

Hi All ,

I am getting this error on RAD when I try to start the server :: ' An out of memory error has occurred. Consult the "Running Eclipse" section
of the read me file for information on preventing this kind of error in the
future. You are recommended to exit the workbench'. There is enough space on the disk but why is the VM showing low memory for work-bench .. Please help . Thanks.

I have moved this post to our IDE forum.

What is the readme saying?

What does disk have to do with it? Focus on the actual problem: Eclipse doesn't have enough memory to run in.

when I try to start the server

What server? Is the server running in its own process or in the Eclipse process? The solution depends on the answers to these questions. (The basic solution is to increase the heap size, the "how to" depends on the answers.)

Actually, you could also be out of memory on your machine. That is, the server you are starting runs in a separate process and the amount of memory required by the server exceeds the available memory on your machine. In that case either decreasing the heap and/or permgen size for the server, or decreasing the heap and/or permgen size for Eclipse, or installing more RAM, or increasing the page file size would help.

The server is WASv6.1 . There is enough RAM : 1.94GB . I wonder what the problem is or perhaps how to rectify it . It's an office machine . Is it an installation issue ? Anyway, thanks for the help .

Hi ,

The problem got resolved by increasing heap memory size by typing Xmx1024m in the config.ini file . Thanks once again .
