Error occurred during initialization of VM
Could not reserve enough space for object heap
Could not create the Java virtual machine.
You will receive error above the time you stop/start tomcat on linux cPanel servers. This is because the assigned heap size is insufficient. An alternative is to increase the heap size depending on the RAM allocated to your server.
There are 2 ways you can increase the heap size. Login to your server via SSH & use one of the command below.
export CATALINA_OPTS=”-Xms1024m -Xmx1024m”
OR
export _JAVA_OPTIONS=”-Xms20m -Xmx64m -XX:MinHeapFreeRatio=20 -XX:MaxHeapFreeRatio=40 -XX:NewSize=10m -XX:MaxNewSize=10m -XX:SurvivorRatio=6 -XX:TargetSurvivorRatio=80 -XX:+CMSClassUnloadingEnabled -XX:+CMSPermGenSweepingEnabled”
Once done you will need to restart tomcat.
[root@server ~]$ /usr/local/jakarta/tomcat/bin/shutdown.sh
[root@server ~]$ /usr/local/jakarta/tomcat/bin/startup.sh
[root@server ~]$ /usr/local/jakarta/tomcat/bin/catalina.sh run
