Hi Aaron, Unfortunately I don't have access to Windows 7 to test out potential fixes, but I made a suggestion the other day of modifying the apollo.vmoptions file, which I'm not sure whether it would work. If that doesn't work, we'll have to come up with an alternate method for launching Apollo (probably a batch file).
Here's my suggestion from a few days ago: Windows always end up being the tricky OS to get cross platform applications running. Perhaps you can edit the apollo.vmoptions file but make the following modifications: 1) Merge both lines into one. So instead of having something like: -Xms80m -Xmx1000m you can try: -Xms80m -Xmx1000m 2) Change the -Xmx value to something sensible for your machine (usually half of the available memory is a good start). The installer tries to set a reasonable value for the memory but it sometimes seems to mess up in Windows. Cheers, Ed On Tue, 10 Aug 2010, Aaron Liston wrote:
Hi Ed: Like others, I needed to remove the apollo.vmoptions for Apollo to ru n on Windows 7. Can you add this information to the install instructions? H owever, it looks like this removes the ability to increase memory? Have you found a work around for that? Aaron
