[Hanna Aase]

I get this error message in the new beta version of Zimbra on my mac:

java.lang.outOfMemoryError: java heap space error.

What can I do?

That's not much of an error report, where's the rest of it? When do you get this error? Does it always happen and what are the exact steps to rep[roduce it? How much RAM do you have on this machine?

I have: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; en-US; rv:1.9.2.3) Gecko/20100402 Prism zdesktop/2.0

Don`t know how much RAM I have but it`s a new Mac.

I downloaded: Zimbra desktop 2.0 (10514)

I get this error message when it`s trying to cync and get e-mails.

Have you seen this bug report?

This is not my field, I don`t understand any of the things that`s in the report. Does it mean it`s a bug and I just wount be able to have a Zimbra Desktop?

here is a workaround:

1) look for this file:

/Users/<your user name>/Library/Zimbra Desktop/bin/zdesktop

2) open it with a text editor and search for -Xmx100m

3) change that to -Xmx150m, save the file

4) restart ZD

the above steps increase the max. heap size (related to total memory usage) from 100MB to 150MB.
