I inflated it a bit : -Xms512m -XX:MaxPermSize=200m&nbsp; That way i didn't have PermGen error in the catalina.log file.&nbsp; I did that for both VM (tomcat and virt-tomcat).</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Then, I had to set environment variables prior to launch startup.sh, because by default, those variables point to the Alfresco based directory and virt-tomcat conflicts with the tomcatl already running.&nbsp; When an atempt is made to use virt-tomcat, environement variables for the JVM must be set to ….virt-tomcat/bin directory.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Wed, 24 Nov 2010 04:47:43 GMT ggendreau 2010-11-24T04:47:43Z problem running alfresco-wcm_examples-3.3 on virtual tomcat https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/problem-running-alfresco-wcm-examples-3-3-on-virtual-tomcat/m-p/261268#M214398 Hi I installed Alfresco community 3.4; it works very nicely.&nbsp; Then I tried to run the alfresco-wcm-examples-3.3\..\getting-started-sample;&nbsp; when I tried to preview, I got:&nbsp;&nbsp; Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at alfrescosample.www–sandbox.127-0-0-1.ip.alfrescodemo.net:8180if I ping a Wed, 24 Nov 2010 04:47:43 GMT https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/problem-running-alfresco-wcm-examples-3-3-on-virtual-tomcat/m-p/261268#M214398 ggendreau 2010-11-24T04:47:43Z Re: problem running alfresco-wcm_examples-3.3 on virtual tomcat https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/problem-running-alfresco-wcm-examples-3-3-on-virtual-tomcat/m-p/261269#M214399 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>If you want to use the V.S.&nbsp;&nbsp; Then yes it has to be running.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Please note that there is a bug in the configuration applied with the Bitrock installer for the V.S for 3.4a and 3.4b.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Either use an older installer or a newer installer.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Wed, 24 Nov 2010 08:55:20 GMT https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/problem-running-alfresco-wcm-examples-3-3-on-virtual-tomcat/m-p/261269#M214399 mrogers 2010-11-24T08:55:20Z
