Hi Milo, if you take a better look at the log, you will see that it actually throws this error because of:
Caused by: java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space I had same problem some time ago. It seems that GWC metastore tries to allocate certain amount of memory at startup, and if cant allocate it throws the error. I dont actually know how much memory it tries to take, but i remember i had at least 128Mb of permGen, and I was still seeing this error. GWC people will certainly know more about it. As always, raising permGen fixes the problem though (disabling the GWC worked also) Hope it helps!
