Hi,

I need to do some mods of SugarCRM. I created a php project in EclipsePDT and it loaded. After some time, I got a java heap error and Eclipse shut down.

The error seems to be happening as it is building the workspace for the SugarCRM project (which has thousands of files).

Any ideas on what I can do? I researched the error and it seems to be a memory error. However, if I try to bump the memory beyond 640M, I get an error "could not create java vm". Here's my ini:

-vm
C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre7\bin
-startup
plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.2.0.v20110502.jar
--launcher.library
plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.win32.win32.x86_1.1.100.v20110502
--launcher.XXMaxPermSize
640M
--launcher.defaultAction
openFile
-showlocation
-name
Eclipse for PHP Developers
-vmargs
-Xms128M
-Xmx640M

I am running Windows 7/64 with 8GB of RAM (4.6 used).

Eclipse runs fine on smaller projects.

Any assistance would be great appreciated.

It seems that you're using 32bit JRE which have client mode vm only.

Only for increasing heap size, try
1. Install JDK 7u13(x86)
2. Edit eclipse.ini (maybe eclipse-php.ini in your case)
|-vm
|C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.7.0_13\bin\javaw.exe
|-vmargs
|-server
