Hi Tim,
Thanks for responding so promptly.
I have followed your advice although I set MaxPermSize to 512m for eclipse
and Geronimo. These settings can be seen in the ps output I posted.
The artifact I am developing is an experimental EAR. It includes 3 jsp's but
it includes Hibernate POJO's, EJB3 session beans and a Struts presentation
layer.
The EAR deploys and runs fine under Eclipse. However it generally fails with
a PermGen Space error on the 2nd deployment. Not so good for development. I
am running on a laptop however it has 2 GB RAM.
Please email me your address and I will send you the EAR. However this might
not be for a couple of weeks. as I'm just going on holiday. I will send you
my email address separately.
Many thanks for your help,
Steve

Hi Steve, I assume you've gone through the 5 steps I outlined previously
for
Dale. You might try increasing you MaxPermsize to 768mb but I doubt
that'll make
much difference. Are you able to deploy the artifact to Geronimo outside
of
Eclipse (e.g., using the Admin console) ?? Finally, would you be able to
send me
the artifact that you're deploying ?? If it's proprietary and you cannot I
fully
understand. If not, could you briefly describe the artifact that you are
deploying (i.e., EAR, WAR, EJB, etc.) ??

I'm running on OpenSUSE 10.3 x64 with Geronimo 2.1.3 on a machine with

That's wonderful Dale !! Please let me know if you have any other
problems. BTW,
I've open the following JIRA to fix similar problems.

4. Page down in that section and append your VM arguments at the end
-- don't delete those that are already there. I used the same ones
that Kevan used, but I'm using Java 1.5 and I see that you're using
Java 1.6:
-Xmx512m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m
(snip)
Please try this and let me know what happens. I think you'll have
better results now. Meanwhile, I'm going to open a GEP JIRA to
investigate if we can programmatically determine and set the Geronimo
server VM arguments using those already established for Eclipse since
obviously the default values for the server are not always sufficient.
Thanks much.
Thanks Tim, That worked great. I'd been using run configurations to
make the Geronimo JVM settings... never tried double clicking on the
server. I've been able to republish many times without error AND
without restarting the server (this is really a NICE feature!).
