Opening Smart Review fails with error message: Not enough memory for Java VM


Product

 
  • Kodak® TeamWorks 2.1.0
  • Kodak EyeMedia 2.1.0

Platform

 

Macintosh®

Operating system

  Mac OS® X


Error

 

There is not enough memory allocated to the Java VM for Smart Review to work on this monitor. You need to provide at least 140 MB to view images on this monitor. Please modify the VM memory parameters and restart your browser.


Symptoms

 

When you try to start Smart Review from either TeamWorks or EyeMedia, it fails with the above error message.


Cause

 

Insufficient memory has been allocated to Java® Virtual Machine.


Solution

 

TeamWorks and EyeMedia 2.1.1 automatically sets the amount of memory required. Upgrade to 2.1.1 or perform the following steps to increase the amount of memory allocated to Java Virtual Machine. The procedure varies depending on whether you are running Java 1.4.2 or 1.5.

For Java 1.4.2:

  1. In Finder, select Applications > Utilities > Java.
  2. Double-click Java 1.4.2 Plugin Settings.
  3. In the Java Runtime Parameters box, type -Xmx300m, where mx indicates the maximum memory limit and 300m indicates a limit of 300 MB. (Tip: If you have a lot of memory, you may want to use 500 MB instead of 300 MB.)
  4. Click Apply Now.
  5. Restart your Safari browser or Synoptic Desktop and try starting Smart Review again.

For Java 1.5:

  1. In Finder, select Applications > Utilities > Java > J2SE 5.0.
  2. Double-click Java Preferences.
  3. In the Java Application Runtime Settings area, select J2SE 5.0.
  4. In the Java Applet Runtime Parameters box, type -Xmx300m, where mx indicates the maximum memory limit and 300m indicates a limit of 300 MB. (Tip: If you have a lot of memory, you may want to use 500 MB instead of 300 MB.)
  5. Click Save.
  6. Restart your Safari browser or Synoptic Desktop and try starting Smart Review again.
