OutofMemory PermGen space Alfresco lab 3b

gdent — Tue, 21 Oct 2008 21:25:12 GMT

The installed Alfresco on a windows 2003 server and if I start the server from the start menu everything comes up fine and I can use Alfresco. However, when I try to setup Alfresco to run as a windows service I receive the Out of Memory PermGen space error. I have increased the maxpemsize to 256M

gdent,

I got the same error and solve it by doing the following:

Using Tomcat5w.exe found in <Alfresco>\tomcat\bin, in "Java", I added the following in "Java Option": -XX:MaxPermSize=128m (in addition to the 4 line I already have: -Dcatalina.base=i:\alfresco\tomcat; -Dcatalina.home=i:\alfresco\tomcat; -Djava.endorsed.dirs=i:\alfresco\tomcat\common\endorsed; -Djava.io.tmpdir=i:\alfresco\tomcat\temp)

In my case, I put the "Initial memory pool" to 128 MB, the "Maximum memory pool" to 550MB (to be higher than 512 MB) and the "Thread stack size" to 96kb

After having done this, I have no more difference between starting from the start menu or as a service.

Hoping this help

Philippe

Philipe,

May I know which file that i have to edit and inside which folder?
Because I try to open all files inside folder <Alfresco>\tomcat\bin, The error still the same.
Please give some clear explanation for me because I'm very new in here.
And what the complete line that I have to put?

Really Thanks in advance and hope to getting your response ASAP.

Best Regards,
Yanti

Hi All,

I followed the same setting as in wiki alfresco:

cd c:\alfresco\tomcat\bin
service.bat install alfresco
tomcat5.exe //US//alfresco –DisplayName "Alfresco Server"
[size=150]tomcat5.exe //US//alfresco –JvmMs=128 –JvmMx=550 –JvmSs=96[/size]
tomcat5.exe //US//alfresco –JavaHome=c:/alfresco/java
  ===>  I think it should be tomcat5.exe //US//alfresco –JavaHome=c:/Program Files/java
         Because the latest full bundle installs java under program files….
tomcat5.exe //US//alfresco –Environment ALF_HOME=c:/alfresco/
tomcat5.exe //US//alfresco –Environment PATH=c:/alfresco/bin;%PATH%
tomcat5.exe //US//alfresco –StartPath c:/alfresco –Startup auto‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

I changed the memory allocation size to the above, as what Phillipe suggested.

Now, I've got the following error:

I think the issue is: java.lang.IllegalStateException: The org.alfresco.cache.sysAdminCache Cache is not alive. Search on the forum says it is a bug.

Yanti,

The proposed solution is valid only if you configure Alfresco to start as a service.

If it is your case, the file to open is "Tomcat5w.exe" found in <Alfresco>\tomcat\bin. If not, I don't know where to add these parameters.

You could add parameters to the registry
HKEY_Local_machine \ Software \ Apache Software Foundation \ Procrun 2.0 \ SERVICENAME \ Parameters \ Java

Under options
e.g.
-Dcatalina.base=F:\Tomcat55\virtual-tomcat
-Dcatalina.home=F:\Tomcat55\virtual-tomcat
-Djava.endorsed.dirs=F:\Tomcat55\virtual-tomcat\common\endorsed
-Djava.io.tmpdir=F:\Tomcat55\virtual-tomcat\temp
-XX:MaxPermSize=256M
