Out of memory: Java heap space

[RyanK]

Template for a good bug report, formatted with Markdown:

• versions used (SonarQube, Scanner, Plugin, and any relevant extension)
• Community Edition Version 7.4 (build 18908)

I am using Team City as my CI.
SQ is being hosted in a Win Server 2012 R2. 12 gb of Ram. I have more than 50gig free.
When I have task manager RAM only 40% used

I have added several projects to SonarQube. Only a couple of project i encounter " Out of memory: Java heap space"

Below is the error message I get

Hi,

Would you mind adding your list of plugins and their versions, please? You can find them in Administration > Marketplace.

 
Thx,
Ann

Hi Ann

I do not see where the version are for the installed. I did put a screen shot on what is currently available to update.
I can not upload multiple files as a new user.

Hi,

You’re really close to where you need to be. Take a look at the 2nd column from the left on the All tab:

Hey @RyanK,

Thanks for the feedback. It seems to me that the SonarXML analyzer is exploding while trying to highlight some files.

I suspect that we are actually badly handling very big files, making copies in memory. In order to investigate the issue, I would appreciate if you could answer the following questions:

• Are you analyzing enormous XML file? (several/dozens MB)
• If yes, could you provide (privately if needed) an example of one of this file?

As a temporary workaround, you could try to exclude very big XML files from analysis. It would allow your analysis to passes.

Cheers,
Michael
