OutOfMemoryError when running jar file on a ubuntu VPS












0















I have a jar file that i used to run on my windows 10 and it works fine no problem.



I was trying to run it on my vps server, which has ubuntu server 18.04 with mate desktop environment but it throws a heap space exception no matter what the -Xmx value is.



So i tried to run it on a VM (ubuntu desktop 18.04 4GB RAM) and it worked fine no problem,



Specs and env :



Windows machine has 12GB RAM and JVM 8 (Oracle).



VPS machine has 12GB RAM and also using JVM 8 (Oracle).



I was wondering if there's anything missing to install on the vps that i don't know of. Been looking for solutions online and trying whatever seems relevant but in vain..

  • Are you sure you have a 64bit JVM on the VPS? And are you sure you are using the right JVM? You could easily have multiple installed and accidentally use the wrong JVM.

  • Yes, VM settings: Max. Heap Size (Estimated): 910.50M Ergonomics Machine Class: server Using VM: Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM
