      The setting of JAVA_OPTS=-Xrs can be removed from the service.bat and instead be placed in the run.bat.conf. See forum thread for more details.

    Description

      A couple of users have reported in the forums that AS 5.1.0 when used with the JBoss Native that is shipped with AS causes OutOfMemory errors on Windows. Here are the forum threads:

      http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=161121
      http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=161622

      The real issue is that the default JAVA_OPTS (in run.bat.conf) which set the -Xms, -Xmx and other memory settings are being skipped because the run.bat.conf does not set the JAVA_OPTS if its already set. The service.bat (from JBoss Native) sets the JAVA_OPTS (with -Xrs) which causes the run.conf.bat to just skip the part where other JAVA_OPTS are being set.

      The issue is being tracked in JBoss Native JBNATIVE-59 but i am opening this JBAS JIRA so that it gets tracked as part of the AS project too.

          • Minor - To be worked after urgent, high, and medium priorities are resolved. This term is chosen when the severity of the issue is low, or the complexity or effort to correct it may be higher, relatively speaking. For low priority issues, known workarounds exist or are not needed due to the trivial effort needed to address the issue.
