vmoptions reset after oom-exception
dear list, it seems that after an outofmemory-exception the vmoptions for oxygen (15.2) are reset. Additionally, due to user restrictions I cannot set the vmoptions by myself. how can this be avoided? thanks im
Hi, Please note that the vmoptions are not reset due to the OutOfMemory exception. Most likely you (or the system administrator) updated your Oxygen installation to the latest version or maintenance build. When the Oxygen installation is updated or re-installed, the .vmoptions files get overwritten. If Oxygen does get updated or re-installed, I'm afraid this cannot be avoided at this time. Since you mentioned you cannot set the vmoptions yourself (I'm guessing in "Program Files"), a better solution would be to install Oxygen in your user home folder and thus have write access to its files. We are considering adding an additional .vmoptions file that is stored in the user profile (and thus can be edited) for such a situation.

Can I put in a vote for a vmoptions file being stored in, by default, my HOME directory, or a user defined directory? Also (and if this is already an option, forgive me), I'd love to be able to specify which vmoptions file to use at startup. Sometimes I need a whole bunch of heap, sometimes I don't, and I'd be happy to have 2 shell scripts, one for each scenario.

Hi, I've added your vote for a .vmoptions file stored in the user profile. While you can't specify a different .vmoptions file (it must have the same name as the launcher), you can duplicate both the launcher file ('oxygen15.2') and the .vmoptions file ('oxygen15.2.vmoptions'), rename them similarly and then modify the duplicate .vmoptions file. This way you have another Oxygen launcher with a different set of VM options. Note that if Oxygen is already running and you try to start the other launcher, it won't have any effect. You'll first have to quit the running session of Oxygen. Regards, Adrian On 17.03.2014 18:10, Steven Anderson wrote:
