Scala stackoverflow error

[Aishwarya Singhal]

Hi

I have recently started getting a stack overflow every time I make a
change to a view (esp. main.scala.html)

Oops: StackOverflowError
An unexpected error occured caused by exception StackOverflowError:
null

Any ideas on what might be causing it? Also, how can I set JVM
settings for play?

best regards

I have also had this problem.

Start your server with an argument that increases the stack size: e.g.

play run myscalasite -Xss1m
