Hi,

Could anyone have a look at error below and any suggestion will be highly appreciated.

I got error below when I run a web project in MyEclipse Enterprise Workbench Version: 6.6.0

”
org.apache.catalina.core.StandardWrapperValve invoke
SEVERE: Servlet.service() for servlet Blocking Servlet threw exception
java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space”

my system information listed below

if I change -XX:MaxPermSize=256M to 512M, myClipse cannot start, BTW, My computer has 2GB memory.

Thank you in advance,
Feng

Feng,

Sorry that you are seeing this issue.

1. Can you check to see if these settings work for you ?

-vmargs
-Xmx768m
-XX:MaxPermSize=384m

2. I see that you are working with a very old installation of MyEclipse. Our latest release is 10.6 which has over 3-4 years of latest developments, enhancements and fixes.

I strongly recommend you install 10.6 to take advantage of the developments we have done over the past few years.

You can download the 10.6 installer from here :
https://www.myeclipseide.com/index.php?name=Recommend_Us&req=Download&version=ME

You can install 10.6 alongside 6.6 without uninstalling 6.6. The license you hold for ME 6.6 is valid for ME 10.6 too as our licenses are time based and not version based.

Alternatively you can use Pulse to install MyEclipse 10.6 :
https://www.genuitec.com/forums/topic/installation-how-to-install-myeclipse-from-pulse/

The FAQ is based on a previous version of MyEclipse. Select ‘Eclipse 3.7 – Indigo’ from the Explore section and MyEclipse 10.6 and follow the wizard.

Let us know how it works for you.

Hi Swapna,

Thanks for your suggestions.
I tried to change parameter like below, sitll doesn’t work (got java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space error)
-vmargs
-Xmx768m
-XX:MaxPermSize=384m

Also I installed MyEclipse 10.6, no good news for me.

I do have a question about Apache Tomcat/6.0.13, which is used by MyEclipse, how can I do configuration about it? The reason I am asking is I have no problem if I am using Apache Tomcat/6.0.18.

Any input will be appreciated.

I found this helps and no more Java heap space error.

..
Window > Preferences > MyEclipse > Servers > Integrated Sandbox > MyEclipse Tomcat > JDK. In the Optional VM Arguments section you can try addingCode:
-Xmx1024M

Cheers,
Feng
