Hi, I'm trying to run hadoop version 19 on ubuntu with java build 1.6.0_11-b03. I'm getting the following error:
Error occurred during initialization of VM Could not reserve enough space for object heap Could not create the Java virtual machine. make: *** [run] Error 1 I searched the forums and found some advice on setting the VM's memory via the javac options -J-Xmx512m or -J-Xms256m I have tried this with various sizes between 128 and 1024 MB. I am adding this tag when I compile the source. This isn't working for me, and allocating 1 GB of memory is a lot for the machine I'm using. Is there some way to make this work with hadoop? Is there somewhere else I can set the heap memory? Thanks. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Could-not-reserve-enough-space-for-heap-in-JVM-tp22215608p22215608.html Sent from the Hadoop core-user mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
