Not heap size Virtual Machine error

Tue Nov 20, 2018 9:16 pm

When trying to install free LogicalDOC SW I constantly receives the error message: "Could not create Java Virtual Machine...". This is normally due to a memory-allocation error, but Java reponds well in a console when issuing: "java -Xmx512M -version". It only indicates a problem when launching the LogicalDOC installer.

Usually you should launch the installer with the command

Code: Select all

java -jar logicaldoc-installer.jar
or

Code: Select all

java -jar logicaldoc-installer.jar -console
https://docs.logicaldoc.com/en/installa ... ldoc-linux

Honestly I never had this problem, even when I installed on servers with only 4GB of memory
You should look at the console and the installer log file

Of course you can add the options -Xmx when you launch the installer

Code: Select all

java -Xmx1024m -jar logicaldoc-installer.jar

Thanks, but .jar file is not an option. I'm running Windows 8.1 and only .exe installers are available.

I've put it away for a while, but now I'm in acute need of a DMS and LogicalDoc seems to pop up as the best choice. However it still doesn't install for the same reason.

You can get the .zip (Linux) installer, uncompress it and then you will have the .jar file.
From there you can open a command prompt and launch the installer from the command line
