I in fact verified that, and yes that is the case.. We did use a 32 bit Java VM. I remember getting errors that indicated we needed to be on a 64 bit OS on LINUX, and then I sort of vaguely remember checking the CM which told me that while the OS needed to be 64 bit, you needed a 32 bit JVM..
With 7.5 being as new as it is, I did have the opportunity to install it only on LINUX and Windows, and on Windows, it worked with 32 bit all round.. I wasn't 100% sure of other strains of UNIX.. I apologize for nearly sparking almost a controversy :-) Joe -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arsl...@arslist.org]on Behalf Of Easter, David Sent: Tuesday, February 02, 2010 8:16 PM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: Big fan of Remedy Developer Studio? ** You're both correct. In AR System 7.5.00, a Linux box running the Mid-Tier must be using a 64-bit version of the Linux OS. However, on that 64-bit OS, the mid-tier is running inside a 32-bit JVM. -David J.

I am almost positive I had to upgrade the LINUX boxes at my previous project from 32 to 64 because the new Mid-Tier would not install on the 32 bit servers. I am not on that same project anymore but could find out what that issue was just in case I am remembering something wrong.. I'll try to find out tomorrow. (to be continued...)

Known Incompatibilities for Java 1. All AR System Java-based components are supported for use only within a 32-bit Java Virtual Machine. AR System Java-based components may not execute properly within a 64-bit JVM and use of a 64-bit JVM is considered to be unsupported. Known Incompatibilities for AR System Mid-Tier 1. Unless otherwise noted, native 64-bit versions of Application Servers, Web Servers or Servlet Engines have not been tested and are therefore unsupported. I don't see anything otherwise noted for the mid-tier. Did I miss something?

Have you tried using the Migrator? That might be your temporary solution.

I have tried loading Dev Studio on a 64-bit server with loads of memory - same issue. Remedy Admin tool (also 32-bit) handles the def files with no problems.

David, That's the best you could do then.. Have you tried installing the client on a machine that may have more available memory so you could use a bigger java heap? I'm assuming you may have exhausted this option too..

Hence my question to David Easter last month about whether the next version of Dev Studio will be able to use a 64 bit JVM.

David, Increase the memory allocated for java for the tool. That should take care of out of memory errors..
