OutOfMemory Exception

[hammerguy]

Hi,

I have been trying to work through Jeff Potts tutorials recently updated (jan 2014).
I have downloaded the maven-sdk project from GitHub (https://github.com/jpotts/alfresco-developer-series)
and tried to build it and run it on the embedded Tomcat server (using "integration-test -Pamp-to-war" goal)

Here I get: nested exception is java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: PermGen space

I'm confused because I haven't installed Alfresco, so there is no tomcat installation, but rather embedded.

If I am not wrong, the tutorial uses Maven as its build system. In that case, if you are using Eclipse you can set this in run configurations->jre

-Xmx512m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m

obviously increasing 512m to the size you (and your machine) intend to support.

Otherwise if you are launching trough command line just set:

MAVEN_OPTS="-Xmx512m -XX:MaxPermSize=128m
