JBOSS EAP 6.1.0

OutOfMemoryError  Java heap space

I started receiving this error about two months ago and I seem to see it about every three weeks.

I've  seen on the web all sorts of settings and suggestions but if I edit the current standalone.conf.bat file with anything other than the original

set "JAVA_OPTS=-Xms1303M -Xmx1303M -XX:MaxPermSize=256M"

one of two things happen:

1) the services start buts the mgmt. console will never load   http://kmgapps:9990/console/App.html#server-overview

2) the service immediately dies.

The machine itself has 6gig and is Win2008 R2 64bit.   My thought was to set -Xmx at 2048M to give it a little head room

Any suggestions for a JBOSS noob

you are probably using 32bit jvm, which has a limit around 1.3-1.4GB on windows.

Install 64bit JVM and you can set Xmx to higher values

I am receiving the error as well and I am running 64-bit:

java version "1.7.0_51"

Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_51-b13)

Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.51-b03, mixed mode)
