Host install problems.

trying to install and getting this



C:\Program Files\Reprap>java -cp ".\reprap.jar;.\RXTXcomm.jar;.\j3dcore.jar;.\j3
d-org-java3d-all.jar;.\j3dutils.jar;.\swing-layout-1.0.3.jar;.\vecmath.jar;." -X
mx1024M org/reprap/Main
Error occurred during initialization of VM
Could not reserve enough space for object heap
Could not create the Java virtual machine.

C:\Program Files\Reprap>if ERRORLEVEL 1 pause
Press any key to continue . . .


have tried java 5 and 6.

I think -Xmx1024M means it is requesting 1GB of memory. Do you have that much free on your system?

I should do, have 4gig ram in my computer, and i did attempt to close all unessential proseses ine time.

Why would it be requesting that much RAM? I run the host software on a several year old computer with 1 GB of RAM under Windows 7 and have no issues at all.

Help improve the RepRap wiki! Just click "Edit" in the top-right corner of the page and start typing. Anyone can edit the wiki!

I have no idea.

Hi Guys!

I have also a problem with starting the Reprap software.
I tried already different versions of Java and the Reprap software.
But the error-screen has never changed!

In the forums I could only find similar errors but no solutions.
So maybe some of you could give me some tipps for my further procedure.

My system:
Windows XP Professional SP3
Intel Core2 Duo CPU
T8100 @ 2.1 Ghz
2GB RAM

Today I will try to start the software on a other system but it's also a Win XP SP3.
If that attempt will also be a failure, I will install and try it with Linux...

So thanks a lot for your support and have a nice day!
David

Ok, sorry guys!

I just fixed the problem by inserting the path of my java in the reprap.bat file!
Just like rhmorrison said a few threads earlier.

Change the batch file to include the full path where java is installed i.e. instead of

java -cp ".\reprap.jar;.\RXTXcomm.jar;.\j3dcore.jar;.\j3
d-org-java3d-all.jar;.\j3dutils.jar;.\swing-layout-1.0.3.jar;.\vecmath.jar;." -X
mx1024M org/reprap/Main

use

"c:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin\java.exe" -cp ".\reprap.jar;.\RXTXcomm.jar;.\j3dcore.jar;.\j3
d-org-java3d-all.jar;.\j3dutils.jar;.\swing-layout-1.0.3.jar;.\vecmath.jar;." -X
mx1024M org/reprap/Main

Making sure of course that it is the proper path to JAVA on your system.

So, lets go to the next step...
