Re: Still having issues with Sodbeans crashing after e-mailing my university's system administrators

Dr. Stefik,
On my Windows machine in sodbeans.conf, I have a variation on what you showed me as pasted below: default_options="--branding sodbeans --J-client -J-Xss2m -J-Xms32m -J-XX:PermSize=32m -J-XX:MaxPermSize=512m" This is in Sodbeans 2.0. I do not, however, have a netbeans_default_options directive in the conf so not sure if I should add one in. I think you will need to get in contact with Jon Lilienkamp, the system administrator, because I do not have access to play with the sodbeans.conf file on the campus machines. He has to perform the experimentation there. I cannot perform it at home, because I'm not having these issues on my 64-bit Windows 7 machine. However, my campus is running Windows 7. I'm not sure what their specs are though. Jon is the Windows administrator. Again, his e-mail is lilienkampj@xxxxxxxxx

Thank you very much,
Mike

Mike,

Hmm, it could be. I'm on a mac at this second, but on my NetBeans
install on my machine, the line looks something like this:

netbeans_default_options="-J-client -J-Xss2m -J-Xms32m
-J-XX:PermSize=32m -J-XX:MaxPermSize=384m
-J-Dapple.laf.useScreenMenuBar=true
-J-Dapple.awt.graphics.UseQuartz=true -J-Dsun.java2d.noddraw=true"

That's confusing as all get-out, but those are flags to the java
virtual machine. Experimenting with the numbers might work, as it
should influence the heap size. I recall having problems on some
machines if the numbers get too high, above 2 gigs or so, but I've
heard others say that it works fine. As you can tell, this side of
things is a bit of a black art ...

Let me know,

Stefik

Dr. Stefik,
The system administrator at UMSL is trying to comment out the line to
resolve the heap memory issue as documented in the troubleshooting guide,
and he says that he is not finding the line in sodbeans.conf to comment out. He may be contacting you. This is Jon Lilienkamp, the system administrator we worked with before. I mainly have problems running a Java program within Sodbeans after compiling; I get the "This program is not responding," error
message and Sodbeans locks up.  This also occurs if I paste Java code into
the Sodbeans text editor.  Is this related to the "Out of heap memory"
issue?  Finally, Jon Lilienkamp's e-mail address is lilienkampj@xxxxxxxxx
Please e-mail him, and Cc my e-mail address michael.walker@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
with your response.

Thanks,
Mike

Hi,
Please see the message below from the system administrators at my
university. The link you provided, Jeff, wasn't helpful to them. Here is
what they e-mailed me:
Subject: RE: Issue with Sodbeans locking up on campus in class

Unfortunately, there is no useful information at the link provided.
The only fix mentioned is to remark out a line in a file.  The files
exists.  The line does not.

Searching for "This program is not responding." Provided 2 links.  One
of these was release notes.   The other was a page titled "The Hop
Programming Language" which was equally as useful.

Do we have a contact for this product?
