myeclipse has detected that less than 5% of the 64MB of Perm Gen(Non_heap memory) space remains.
It is strongly recommended that you exit and restart MyEclipse with new virtul machine memory paramters to increase this memory.Failure to do so can result in data loss.
The recommended Eclipse memory parameters are:
eclipse.exe -vmargs-Xms128m-Xmx512m-Xmx512m-XX:PermSize=64m-XX:MaxPermSize=128m

I edit the eclipse.ini,change the parameters but it won’t work –Eclipse cannot run.

pls help.[/url]

The problem can be that you have command line arguments in your shortcut AND command line arguments in your eclipse.ini file, Eclipse will only use one or the other.

I would suggest editing your shortcut and adding all the arguments. Please note, above when you pasted the command line arguments, you have no spaces between them, I don’t know if that is a typo or not, but you do need spaces between each -X argument.

Oh,Thank you very much.
It is my fault.
I first open eclipse.ini with notepad.I did not see the spaces.
But when i use editpuls the format is obvious.
Finally the problem is solved.

I’m glad to hear it’s better now.

we are getting the same exact problem. And our shortcuts are setup correctly (here is a copy of the batch file we use to startup our eclipse environments – please let me know if you see something wrong).

:INIT
    SETLOCAL
    pushd .\
    set ECLIPSE_DIR=c:\eclipse
    set ECLIPSE=%ECLIPSE_DIR%\eclipse.exe
    set JAVA_HOME="C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0"
    set VM=%JAVA_HOME%\bin\javaw.exe
    set ECLIPSE_ARGS=-nosplash -nolazyregistrycacheloading -showlocation
    set MEM_ARGS=-Xms128m -Xmx512m -XX:PermSize=64M -XX:MaxPermSize=128M
    set VM_ARGS=-Duser.language=en -Dide.gc=true -XX:+UseParallelGC 
:RUN
    cd %ECLIPSE_DIR%
    start %ECLIPSE% %ECLIPSE_ARGS% -vm %VM% -vmargs %MEM_ARGS% %VM_ARGS%
:EXIT
    ENDLOCAL
    exit

Greatly appreciated,
Anthony

Anthony,

What happens when you change your memory arguments to just include more memory? try…

-Xmx784M

[Anthony Estelita]

That seems to do the trick. 🙂 I am not too keen on locking that much memory; but if that is what it takes then so be it. 🙂

Thank you,
Anthony
