JBoss 6.1 + PermGen space

java jboss6.x permgen solaris-10
Sabbirali picture Sabbirali · Oct 7, 2013 · Viewed 13.5k times · Source

I have deployed Jboss 6.1 on Solaris and it was working fine. Then I did some FTP and Telnet and direct Root login was disabled. After that I'm getting PermGen space error.

What might be the reason for this error? Please help.

If you are working around big Enterprise Application, you may face memory issues in Jboss. In order to solve this you need to increase JVM PermSize for Jboss. Lets see the steps to increase Jboss PermSize.

Note: I tested this settings under jboss-as-7.1.1.Final

Windows

  1. Editbin\standalone.conf.bat

  2. Change the MaxPermSize as per your requirement and save the file:

    set "JAVA_OPTS=-Xms64M -Xmx512M -XX:MaxPermSize=256M"

  3. Restart Jboss.

Linux

  1. Edit bin/standalone.conf

  2. Change the MaxPermSize as per your requirement and save the file.

    JAVA_OPTS="-Xms64m -Xmx512m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true -Dorg.jboss.resolver.warning=true -Dsun.rmi.dgc.client.gcInterval=3600000 -Dsun.rmi.dgc.server.gcInterval=3600000"

  3. Restart Jboss
