Ok, I have a modified wildfire script that works normally with a -Xmx256m entry in it. Now I want to boost available RAM for wildfire to 1.5 gb. I have tried the following
-Xmx1500m
-Xmx1.5g
-Xmx1000m
and the server instance refuses to start. what is the correct parameter to put in so that I will have 1.5 gigs available for wildfire. user base is now at 3400 users, with a standard load at any given time of 950 to 1150. Any Ideas?
Jeff
As a note, I did look around, attempted to put the values in, even tried 1024m as someone suggested, but still won;t run with the line uncommented in the wildfire script…
Jeff
Hi Jeff,
-Xmx1500m is right, could you run your (unix) script with “sh -x ./wildfire.sh start”? This should print the java call which fails on the screen.
What is the error you see in nohup.out?
If you have just 1500 MB physical memory it will not start with this value.

Ok so now what? what am I missing?
Ok I have the issue here, no resolution yet but I do have what the problem is. I have 4 gb of ram, but Linux is using most of it for processes. Looks like I need to work the config file for Java to allow . Thanks LG Not my solution, but Definitely pointed me in the right direction.
Jeff
Hi Jeff,
“Unrecognized VM option ‘‘MaxSize=70m’’” indicates that the VM does not know what to do with this option. You did edit your file and changed MaxPermSize to MaxSize, didn’'t you?
It should help a lot to remove the MaxPerm parameter or to name it MaxPermSize.
