Permgen space error for springs application

Question

I have one simple Login and logout springs application which is throwing exception java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: PermGen space again and again. I tried to change VM option of application in my NetBeans IDE but its not working. I made following changes:

-Xmx1024m

and

-Xmx512m

Every time my application is running 2-3 times then throwing this exception. is it because of my code or any other configurations? How can i solve it?

Use option for increasing max permgen space. More info http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3003855/increase-permgen-space — Arek Woźniak, Mar 28 '14 at 10:25
@Bart : clicking on run button of IDE. Tomcat is getting started automatically — Manish Mahajan, Mar 28 '14 at 10:45
I don't know Netbeans but there must be some runner configuration that supports that button. It's a good idea to investigate there and try the VM options presented by the answers below. — Bart, Mar 28 '14 at 10:48

The PermGen memory space sits outside of the heap, so changing Xmx won't help.

Try the following: -XX:MaxPermSize=256m or some larger value if that's not enough.

Hope this helps,
