I have tried to increase the java memory heap size for jboss by making changes to the run.conf.bat file as suggested from

How to increase heap size for jBoss server

and set to

    rem # JVM memory allocation pool parameters - modify as appropriate.
set "JAVA_OPTS=-Xms2048M -Xmx2048M -XX:MaxPermSize=1024M"

If I run the jboss server from the jboss_dir/bin directory using windows command prompt it runs with above JAVA_OPTS values

however if run the same jboss from eclipse IDE the eclipse console shows following message

    22:31:46,457 INFO  [ServerInfo] Java version: 1.6.0_31,Sun Microsystems Inc.
22:31:46,457 INFO  [ServerInfo] Java Runtime: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_31-b05)

22:31:47,761 INFO  [ProfileServiceBootstrap] Loading profile: ProfileKey@4fe2fe5d[domain=default, server=default, name=default]

I was wondering what eclipse configuration I may have missed so that the jboss is still starting with the JAVA_OPTS with values -Xms128m -Xmx512m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m

22:31:46,458 INFO  [ServerInfo] VM arguments: -Dprogram.name=run.bat -Xms128m -Xmx512m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m -Dfile.encoding=Cp1252

  • Make sure that Eclipse is running your JBoss directly from JBoss folder and not from the auto generated eclipse configuration. – Luiggi Mendoza Oct 14 '14 at 17:07
  • @LuiggiMendoza Server Runtime Environments have JBoss set to the configured JBoss folder (same folder from where I am manually running jboss from command prompt). – veer7 Oct 14 '14 at 17:21

In the servers tab, double clicking on a server opens a window called "Overview" (first image), where you can find sections like General Information, Management Login Credentials, Publishing, etc.

There's also a link "Open Launch Configurations", which opens a new window (second image) where you can set up vm arguments.

Double clicking shows this

Open Launch COnfigurations shows this
