I am using Tomcat 7.0.28. I have deployed a war file.
In this war file there is a server like structure where we can upload the files.
Now when i access that web page it is working, but when i try to upload the large files it is showing error of JAVA Heap Space.
How can i solve it?
You are probably trying to put the whole file in memory. Your first shot should be to change the -Xmx parameter at the Tomcat JVM startup options to give it more memor. Aside from that, you'll have to read the file one chunk at a time, and write it on the hard drive, so as to free the memory.
You can increase HeapSize in tomcat using below command .
Linux : Open Catalina.sh file placed in the "bin" directory. You have to apply the changes to this line
CATALINA_OPTS="$CATALINA_OPTS -server -Xms256m -Xmx1024m "
Windows:
Open the "Catalina.bat" file placed in the "bin" directory
set CATALINA_OPTS=-server -Xms256m -Xmx1024m
Restart the tomcat after above change.

I have this VM with tomcat, java, and grails in it. I've been getting permgen errors so I looked around and found the solution:
set JAVA_OPTS="-Xms256m -Xmx1024m -XX:PermSize=512m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m"
I use SSH to access the vm and type the arguments above. I suppose that would fix the problem. Thing is, I wanted to make sure that I did it correctly. So I searched again on how I could check the current permSize and this is the solution I got:
jinfo -flag MaxPermSize 6444
6444 is the pid, and as a response, I got this.
-XX:MaxPermSize=85983232
Question: Is the value of the maxPermSize in bytes? because, if it is, then that would mean that the java_opts command didn't work. I am expecting to get 512m but 85983232 bytes = 82 mb.. Or am I seeing it wrong..? Can anybody enlighten me on this? D:
You have to change the values in the CATALINA_OPTS option defined in the Tomcat Catalina start file. To increase the PermGen memory change the value of the MaxPermSize variable, otherwise change the value of the Xmx variable.
Linux & Mac OS: Open or create setenv.sh file placed in the "bin" directory. You have to apply the changes to this line:
export CATALINA_OPTS="$CATALINA_OPTS -server -Xms256m -Xmx1024m -XX:PermSize=512m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m"
Windows:
Open or create the setenv.bat file placed in the "bin" directory:
set CATALINA_OPTS=-server -Xms256m -Xmx1024m -XX:PermSize=512m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m
Don't put the environment configuration in catalina.bat/catalina.sh. Instead you should create a new file in CATALINA_BASE\bin\setenv.bat to keep your customizations separate of tomcat installation.
So you are doing the right thing concerning "-XX:MaxPermSize=512m": it is indeed the correct syntax. You could try to set these options directly to the Catalyna server files so they are used on server start.
Maybe this post will help you!
How to make sure that Tomcat6 reads CATALINA_OPTS on Windows?
Completely removed from java 8 +
Partially removed from java 7 (interned Strings for example)

In my Confluence plugin development, my local confluence instance uses tomcat6. (Confluence Version 5.6.5 , OS : Mac OS X)
I need to increase the heap size from the default 512m to 1024m.
I added a new setenv.sh file inside the bin directory of the location below.
../target/container/tomcat6x/apache-tomcat-6.0.20/bin
And also added the below contents to the file
export CATALINA_OPTS="$CATALINA_OPTS -server -Xms1024m -Xmx1024m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m"
but when i restarted the confluence instance I didnt find the change of heap size being reflected.
Following are the JVM statistics generated during the atlas-run command after the changes are made.
could some one clarify me if I am doing something wrong ??
thanks in advance!
I want to change memory configuration of Tomcat. I know it can be done at
Start > Apache Tomcat > Configure Tomcat > Java Tab] as can be seen below
and specifying options like
-Xms512m
-Xmx1024m
-XX:MaxPermSize=512m
-XX:MaxHeapFreeRatio=70
there.
However this program group is created if I install Tomcat from an executable. I have installed Tomcat by simply extracting the zip which does not create Program group. So now where can I specify this information
With regards to the question of where Tomcat's memory options are saved when using the service version, on my machine at least they can be found in the Windows Registry at:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Apache Software Foundation\Procrun 2.0\Tomcat-6\Parameters\Java
Initial memory and Maximum memory are recorded against the JvmMs and JvmMx values, while the options text is recorded against the Options value.
The Tomcat-6 portion of the address on mine is, I believe, based on the identifier I gave to the service (i.e. within the service manager Tomcat is named "Apache Tomcat 6.0 Tomcat-6"), and you may not need to go through Wow6432Node depending on whether you're using 32-bit or 64-bit Tomcat.
I'm assuming here that they haven't made any dramatic changes in where this information is stored in versions of Tomcat more recent than Tomcat 6.
Ohkay while digging inside Tomcat I found some information in one of its txt files (point 3.4) and online:
Apart from CATALINA_HOME (which is set to apache-tomcat-x.x.x directory, for e.g. C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\apache-tomcat-7.0.41) and CATALINA_BASE (optional, defaults to CATALINA_HOME), all environment variables can
be specified in the setenv script. The script is placed either into
CATALINA_BASE/bin or into CATALINA_HOME/bin directory and is named
setenv.bat (on Windows) or setenv.sh (on *nix). The file has to be
readable.
By default the setenv script file is absent. If the script file is present
both in CATALINA_BASE and in CATALINA_HOME, the one in CATALINA_BASE is
preferred.
For example, to configure the JRE_HOME and CATALINA_PID variables you can
create the following script file:
On Windows, %CATALINA_BASE%\bin\setenv.bat:
set "JRE_HOME=%ProgramFiles%\Java\jre6"
exit /b 0
On *nix, $CATALINA_BASE/bin/setenv.sh:
JRE_HOME=/usr/java/latest
CATALINA_PID="$CATALINA_BASE/tomcat.pid"
To set Java options for memory allocation for web app, add something like following (as per memory requirements of your application) to the same file
set JAVA_OPTS="-Xms256m -Xmx512m"
The CATALINA_HOME and CATALINA_BASE variables cannot be configured in the
setenv script, because they are used to locate that file.
All the environment variables described here and the setenv script are
used only if you use the standard scripts to launch Tomcat. For example, if
you have installed Tomcat as a service on Windows, the service wrapper
launches Java directly and does not use the script files.
I am using tomcat 6 and the WAR file I have deployed is giving me out of memory error. I have installed tomcat6 using windows installer because of it I am unable to find any catalina.bat in tomcat6.0\bin folder where I can configure CATALINA_OPTS variable.
If you are not able to find the catalina.bat then edit your tomcat6w.exe and add
-XX:+CMSClassUnloadingEnabled
-XX:+CMSPermGenSweepingEnabled
-XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC
-XX:PermSize=128m
-XX:MaxPermSize=512m
You should change the “Xms” and “PermSize” value base on your server
capability.
Once done with editing simply Restart Tomcat.
Hope it helps!
If you have trouble setting CATALINA_OPTS in tomcat installation, you can set it as a environment variable in windows.
UPDATE:
If the previous method is not working then you can create a file, setenv.bat in bin directory of tomcat.
And in that file you can put the arguments like:
set CATALINA_OPTS= "JVM Conditions here"
This did the trick for me, try it out.

How to tune Tomcat 5.5 JVM Memory settings without using the configuration program
This is the error I get when I run my web application in an instance of the Tomcat servlet container started by NetBeans. To fix this I even changed the heap size in netbeans.conf, but still it shows the same error. How can I keep this from happening?
HTTP Status 500 -

note The full stack trace of the root cause is available in the Apache Tomcat/5.5.9 logs.
Changing the heap size in netbeans.conf only changes the heap for NetBeans itself, not for applications run through NetBeans.
The correct way is to right-click on the project and select "Properties" and then "Run"; there you can set the VM options appropriately (-Xmx256m, for instance). It should look something like this:
(Thanks to VonC for finding this picture.)
Stop Tomcat server, set environment variable CATALINA_OPTS, and then restart Tomcat. Look at the file tomcat-install/bin/catalina.sh or catalina.bat for how this variable is used. For example,
set CATALINA_OPTS="-Xms512m -Xmx512m" (Windows)export CATALINA_OPTS="-Xms512m -Xmx512m" (ksh/bash)setenv CATALINA_OPTS "-Xms512m -Xmx512m" (tcsh/csh)
In catalina.bat or catallina.sh, you may have noticed CATALINA_OPTS, JAVA_OPTS, or both can be used to specify Tomcat JVM options.
What is the difference between CATALINA_OPTS and JAVA_OPTS?
The name CATALINA_OPTS is specific for Tomcat servlet container, whereas JAVA_OPTS may be used by other java applications (e.g., JBoss). Since environment variables are shared by all applications, we don't want Tomcat to inadvertently pick up the JVM options intended for other apps. I prefer to use CATALINA_OPTS.
How to set java heap size in JBoss?
Stop JBoss server, edit $JBOSS_HOME/bin/run.conf, and then restart JBoss server. You can change the line with JAVA_OPTS to something like:
JAVA_OPTS="-server -Xms128m -Xmx128m"
How to set java heap size in Eclipse?
You have 2 options:
Edit eclipse-home/eclipse.ini to be something like the following and
restart Eclipse.
-vmargs-Xms64m-Xmx256m
Or, you can just run eclipse command with additional options at the
very end. Anything after -vmargs will be treated as JVM options and
passed directly to the JVM. JVM options specified in the command
line this way will always override those in eclipse.ini. For
example,
eclipse -vmargs -Xms64m -Xmx256m
How to set java heap size in NetBeans?
Exit NetBeans, edit the file netbeans-install/etc/netbeans.conf. For example,
netbeans_default_options="-J-Xms512m -J-Xmx512m -J-XX:PermSize=32m -J-XX:MaxPermSize=128m -J-Xverify:none
How to set java heap size in Apache Ant?
Set environment variable ANT_OPTS. Look at the file $ANT_HOME/bin/ant or %ANT_HOME%\bin\ant.bat, for how this variable is used by Ant runtime.
set ANT_OPTS="-Xms512m -Xmx512m" (Windows)export ANT_OPTS="-Xms512m -Xmx512m" (ksh/bash)setenv ANT_OPTS "-Xms512m -Xmx512m" (tcsh/csh)
If you increase the virtual memory of your Tomcat server then it will be OK.
Steps:
In NB go through the windows menu and add Services
You will find Tomcat in the services. Right click on Tomcat server and select Properties
Go to the platform in the properties and write -Xms512m in VM options field
I'm guessing that increasing the memory won't fix the problem. What is that MonitorFilter doing? What's eating up all that memory?
Your best bet is to figure that out. If this is a web app, see if you can turn off that filter and run without it. If you have success, you know that the MonitorFilter is causing your to fail.
This has nothing to do with NetBeans (well, perhaps), rather it has to do with Tomcat. Tomcat is the process that is running out of heap, not NetBeans. Track down the startup process for your Tomcat. If it's bundled with NB, then Tomcat is buried within the NB installation, check for an "enterpriseN" directory, N being a number, Tomcat is probably in there and it's a rather generic distribution of it.
As to why the monitor is run OOM, that's hard to say, it's a pretty simple process when you think about it. You can also try disabling HTTP monitoring to see if it's a problem with the Monitoring itself or something with your application.
