I am getting java.lang.OutOfMemory error?

Question

Hi

I am trying to view confluence system information and when I click on the link I am getting

org.apache.velocity.exception.MethodInvocationException: Invocation of method 'getModifications' in class com.atlassian.confluence.admin.actions.ViewSystemInfoAction threw exception java.lang.OutOfMemoryError at /admin/systeminfo.vm[line 99, column 23]
    at org.apache.velocity.runtime.parser.node.ASTIdentifier.execute(ASTIdentifier.java:237)

caused by: java.lang.OutOfMemoryError
    at java.io.FileInputStream.readBytes(Native Method)

Can someone tell me the reason and solution for this.

Amey,

There's a good explanation of this in the documentation on Confluence and Out of Memory Errors. You likely just need to increase available memory for Confluence, perhaps you're still using the defaults. To get you started, there's more on how to do so here:
