Getting PermGen Space error when deploying tomcat 7

[makpandian]

I have deployed BL site application on Tomcat 7. But often I have been getting PermGen space error. I did some configuration changes on catalina.bat but no luck.

Seems there s a big memory leak on it. How to avoid it.?

Thanks
Pandian

You can increase Permgen with something like -XX:MaxPermSize=512m. You would set this in CATALINA_OPTS for Tomcat.

I have the same problem.

Does anyone have solution for this?

You can increase Permgen with something like -XX:MaxPermSize=512m. You would set this in CATALINA_OPTS for Tomcat.

How could this be done?

On windows, I created setenv.bat in Tomcat/bin directory and input the following:

Code: Select all

set CATALINA_OPTS=-XX:PermSize=128m -XX:MaxPermSize=512M -Xms256M -Xmx768m

Nothing changed.

[kkoyman]

Anyone has any solution for this?

[phillipuniverse]

Your CATALINA_OPTS is wrong. You should remove -XX:PermSize=128m and you should lower-case the M in -XX:MaxPermSize such that it reads

-XX:MaxPermSize=512m

instead of:

-XX:MaxPermSize=512M

that you pasted there.

Hi,

Thanks alot for your reply.

I did the changes suggested.

I did add this:

Double clicked the Tomcat server.. I did chose "open launch configuration".
then I added the following argument at the end of arguments tab:

-XX:MaxPermSize=512m

After maven clean and Maven install, the application runs without errors.

Thanks.☺
