IBM Worklight 6.0 - Java heap space error while trying to build and deploy

Question

My laptop is running Window 7 32bits. I am using Worklight 6.0.

I can code/modify and test for a while until a couple days ago when the function of build and deploy took a long time and finally errored out with a "Java heap space".

I tried expanding XMX from 512m to be 1g and XMS from 40m to be 512m in eclipse.ini, but it still does not work.

Answer 1

Try increasing the memory given to the application server.

In Eclipse, open the Server view, expand the Worklight server and add the following to the jvm options: -Xmx1024m

Answer 2

You may also want to add/update the "-Xmx1024m" in eclips.ini as well, it worked for me.
