[Prabhu]

Hi,

The jmeter file runs on jmeter Client successfully and also when i use
ant from jmeter\extra\build.xml file.
In jmeter.bat file the jchav build file is using i have incresed the
heap size to
set HEAP=-Xms1024m -Xmx1024m

The build is successful but the jmeter report is not generated.


I am getting following error when i run buil-example.xml file for my
jmeter xml file,

C:\Jmeter\jchav-1.1.1\docs\javelina>ant -f build-example.xml run-
jmeter
Buildfile: build-example.xml

Kindly, help.

It sounds like the ant task is running out of memory.

From memory the environmetal variable to set is ANT_OPTS.
ie try
set ANT_OPTS=-Xmx1024M

Let us know how you get on.

Cheers

Its already set to -Xmx1024m in my env variable.

[Paul Goulbourn]

You said you have set HEAP in your batch file. Have you set ANT_OPTS
on command line before running the ant command? JChav does not use
your jmeter.bat file so any environment you set in that will not be
used.

Cheers
Paul
