Hi All,

To anyone that is trying to run JDev 11g (5188) on Mac OSX 10.5.5 and you find that you can't start your Embedded WLS because you get:

<Dec 11, 2008 8:39:41 AM EST> <Error> <HTTP> <BEA-101216> <Servlet: "AsyncResponseServiceServlethttps" failed to preload on startup in Web application: "bea_wls9_async_response.war".

java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: PermGen space

	at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass1(Native Method)

	at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass(ClassLoader.java:675)

	at java.security.SecureClassLoader.defineClass(SecureClassLoader.java:124)

	at java.net.URLClassLoader.defineClass(URLClassLoader.java:260)

	at java.net.URLClassLoader.access$000(URLClassLoader.java:56)

	Truncated. see log file for complete stacktrace

You will probably need to do the following:

1) Edit: ~/.jdeveloper/system11.1.1.0.31.51.88/DefaultDomain/bin/setDomainEnv.sh

And look for:

MEM_MAX_PERM_SIZE="-XX:MaxPermSize=128m"

And replace with:

#MEM_MAX_PERM_SIZE="-XX:MaxPermSize=128m"

MEM_MAX_PERM_SIZE="-XX:MaxPermSize=256m"

export MEM_MAX_PERM_SIZE



USER_MEM_ARGS="${MEM_ARGS} ${MEM_MAX_PERM_SIZE}"

export USER_MEM_ARGS

After you add that, you should be able to startup your Embedded WLS.

Having said this, if you do continue running into java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: PermGen space, you might also need to increase the parameters in MEM_ARGS. If you do change these, also make sure that -Xms and -XX:MaxPermSize have the same size.

I hope this helps!
