Could not create the Java virtual machine

Question

facing some problem with java virtual machine initialization  when i am using root account i can properly work with java  but when i am a user account it returns following errors  user host   JAVA HOME bin java -version Error occurred during initialization of VM Could not reserve enough space for object heap Could not create the Java virtual machine    It does not seems like a memory issue as the same command works with root account  Available memory  free -m  is more than 1200MB Also i have tried increasing the JVM memory limits

I had this issue today  and for me the problem was that I had allocated too much memory   -Xmx1024M -XX MaxPermSize 1024m  Once I reduced the PermGen space  everything worked fine   -Xmx1024M -XX MaxPermSize 512m  I know that doesn t look like much of a difference  but my machine only has 4GB of RAM  and apparently that was the straw that broke the camel s back  The Java VM was failing immediately upon every action because it was failing to allocate the memory
