WAR deployment problems

hello,I followed this wiki to build alfresco from source http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Alfresco_SVN_Development_Environment. I installed all the necessary programs, and set all the needed environment variables. Then I run the mysql commands, and downloaded the source from http://svn.alfresco.com/rep

The ImageMagick error can be safely ignored, although certain transformations won't be available. Fixing it should involve little more than adding the directory containing the "convert.exe" binary to the path used by Tomcat.

The heap error is more serious and will be preventing Alfresco from starting. To increase the size of the JVM's permanent generation, add the following JVM parameter to your Tomcat startup script:

-XX:PermSize=128m ‍

Cheers,

I also followed the steps from http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Development_Environment and I have the same exceptions.
I am using tomcat 5.5.27 and jdk 1.5.0_12.

Where should I put -XXermSize=128m ? I tried to change JAVA_OPTS in catalina.bat by adding this:

[size=85] set JAVA_OPTS=%JAVA_OPTS% [/size][size=150] -XXermSize=128m [/size][size=85] -Djava.util.logging.manager ….[/size]
and
[size=85] set JAVA_OPTS=%JAVA_OPTS% [/size] [size=150]-Xmx512m -Xms256m[/size] [size=85] -Djava.util.logging.manager ….[/size]
and
other combinations and the same result.

Before running the test with each option I removed alf_data and the database.

Can anyone help? Thank you.

set JAVA_OPTS to -Xms1024m -Xmx1024m -XX:MaxPermSize=128m

then drop and recreate the alfresco database. also delete the alf_data folder from the bin of tomcat redeploy alfresco.
