How to increase jvm heap space on studio 6?

[tparry]

How does one change the jvm settings for the studio version 6?

I tried changing the ini file but I still get heap space errors running a report in preview mode.

Modify "Jaspersoft Studio.ini" file.

AS I said I did change the ini file but it seemed not to change anything.

I'm using Studio 5 (not 6) on OS X. The file is located in the following path:

/Applications/Jaspersoft Studio 5.6.0.final/Jaspersoft Studio.app/Contents/MacOS/Jaspersoft Studio.ini

Be sure to make a backup copy of the file, then change -Xms and -Xmx lines to the following (assuming you have enough RAM on-board):

-Xms1024m

-Xmx40964m

Restart Studio and you should hopefully have enough resources allocated to the JVM.

If you're using a more current version, e.g. 6.3.0 you'll find it in a slightly different location in the Application package.

/Applications/TIBCO Jaspersoft Studio 6.3.0.final Pro.app/Contents/Eclipse/Jaspersoft Studio Professional.ini[/code]

The first part (e.g. /Applications/TIBCO Jaspersoft Studio 6.3.0.final Pro.app/) is where your Studio Application is located. The rest can be found by right-clicking the application and showing the package contents. (Usually the second entry in the context menu.)
