Hi

I recently upgraded from 8.5 to 8.6 and have run into problems. My app is a fairly simple J2EE tomcat based.

If I have more than 1 project open (this is often necessary) I get a popup thaty says:

“MyEclipse has detected that less than 5% of the 1,061MB of Tenured Gen (Heap memory) space remains.

It is strongly recommended that you exit and restart MyEclipse with new virtual machine
memory paramters to increase this memory. Failure to do so can result in data loss.

Recommended memory arguments:
-vmargs
-Xmx512m
-XX:MaxPermSize=256m
-XX:ReservedCodeCacheSize=64m”

My myeclipse start args are:

C:\Program Files\Genuitec\MyEclipse-8.6\myeclipse.exe” -vmargs -Xmx1150m -XX:MaxPermSize=262m -XX:ReservedCodeCacheSize=65m

I cant increase them any more that that in 32 bit XP – The JVM core dumps on startup.

I guess the total solution is to go to 64 bit XP or Win7, but thats not an option in the short term, and I didnt have this problem with 8.5.
Any ideas what may cause it and how to resolve?

Where I can download 8.5 until this issue is resolved?

Thanks – Adam

I have had similar problems…. but they appear randomly using the tool.

Adam, Matt
Can you verify if the version and build id are as given below –
Version: 8.6
Build id: 8.6-20100806

If the build Id does not match, I would recommend you to do update your ME8.6 with the update that was released few weeks back. This update is available from Help > MyEclipse Configuration Center > Dashboard tab > software updates. click on “Apply Changes” to get the new update.
Let me know the issue still persists.

I have been using Build id: 8.6-20100723 for 5 days now and the issue has not reocurred.

Many thanks…

Adam,
Good to know that it is working well now,
but can you clarify if the build id is still “8.6-20100723”?
