Java heap out of memory error when creating pdf file using zen reports.

[Rich Brim]

I was creating a large pdf document and received this error. How do I
increase memory? I googled the error and found some answers, but would
feel much better getting the info front the Zen exports.
Also, can I still create the pdf with the existing xml and xsl?

thanks,
Rich

In the worst case, your report may be too large to render, even after adjusting the -Xmx parameter, which I'm sure you've read about. Is your architecture 32-bit or 64-bit? How much physical memory is free? How many records are in your XML file?

You can adjust the maximum heap size Java will allocate by doing the following.

You edit fop.bat and adjust the -Xmx parameter:

set JAVAOPTS=-Xmx512m -Denv.windir=%WINDIR% -Djavax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory=net.sf.saxon.TransformerFactoryImpl

You must be careful not to choose an -Xmx size which is bigger than available physical memory or performance will suffer greatly.

You can create the pdf with the exiting xml and xsl if you have enough memory.

The machine is 64 bit and 2 g of memory. The report was about 600
pages.


I will adjust heap size and see how it goes.

What is the command to recreate pdf from xmla nd xsl?

2 Gig isn't a lot of memory. I wouldn't be surprised if it isn't big enough to render 600 pages.

Here is an example of generating a pdf from xml and xsl files.

c:\intersystems\cache121\fop\fop.bat -c c:\intersystems\cache121\fop\conf\fop.xconf -xml TestTable.xml -xsl TestTable.xsl -pdf TestTable.pdf

Hey Jonathan -- 2 gig is a HUGE amount of memory -- how young are you?

Windows 7 works well wit 6gig(with 4 gig works slowly).

And now Windows 8 is coming, so prepare for 8 gig:)
