hi ,

i had solved this by changing it as the blow ;

Run the JVM with -XX:MaxHeapSize=256m (or any big number), and possibly -Xmx512m     

after change it to 256 ,it solved my problem ,you can take to use it .not change the MaxPermSize value ,keep it as default.

Hi.  I'm attempting to build the latest checked-in source for Selenium server standalone and I'm getting the following error:

Error occurred during initialization of VM

Could not reserve enough space for object heap

Could not create the Java virtual machine.

I notice that in the 'go' file MaxPermSize=1024m.  I tried changing this to 512m (same error) and to 2048m (error: 'The size of the object heap + VM data exceeds the maximum representable size').  I'm running 32-bit Ubuntu 12.04 with 8 gigs of RAM (of which I assume only 4 gigs are addressable).

Any tips on what to try?

Many thanks.
