Hi Thank you
I do have the same behaviour if I set Xms/Xmx in the Java Option or if I set the Initial and Maximum memory pool (I removed Xms/Xmx from Java Option for that test) I really think it would be interesting if you could test on a Win 2019 with 32Gb of RAM as I would think you should be able to reproduce since I have had several reports of this issue now.

Windows 2019 8gb RAM Xms/Xmx 7g Pagefile 2g Restart works fine So it seems to happen only on Windows 2019 with larger heap size. Note that this was reported to me by others, so it appears to be easily reproducible . I wonder if you would have a chance to test on a Windows 2019 , 64 bit Build 17763 (10.0.17763.2686) with above mentionned configuration as I feel you would reproduce.

Yes, I am using the default service installed by Tomcat installer so using procrun and tomcat9.exe I have tried adding -DCATALINA_OPTS="-Xms20g -Xmx20g" under the Java Options parameters in tomcat9w.exe > Java tab But this is not taken into account When I google this, it seems we can't set CATALINA_OPTS when starting as a service Do you have further details on how to set CATALINA_OPTS when starting a service ?

Note though If I execute a manual stop and manual start immediately after, this work, no issue. It is only when I use the Restart option. Both tests are done one after the other, so the overall amount of memory used on the machine at the time is the same in both cases. When the service stops the committed memory goes down to 2.4 Gb, as nothing else is running on that machine, so there is plenty memory left to restart the process, which indeed happen when we use Stop then Start, but not with Restart. I have spent some time with Microsoft too as I thought it was due to the OS, but they are telling me it is not and it is related to Tomcat. I have a process dump that they help me collect. They mentioned it should be helpful to you to check with the symbols. Let me know if you are interested about it.

Hs-err.pid file is created with OutOfMemoryError and: There is insufficient memory for the Java Runtime Environment to continue. Native memory allocation (mmap) failed to map 21474836480 bytes for Failed to commit area from 0x0000000300000000 to 0x0000000800000000 of length 21474836480. If setting Xms and Xmx to 16Gb, it works. If the pagefile size is increased to 32Gb, then it works also However we should not need that pagefile as when Tomcat is stopped, only 2.5Gb out of the 32Gb are used, and it works just fine if we do the 2 step process of Stop and then Start. Using other application, Zookeeper, does not show this problem, the restart works ok even when set to 20Gb, so it seems something with the Tomcat service management. Any help will be appreciated Thank you Chris --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
