Hi Santosh,

First I will include the info I sent previous in case others are
following this thread.

---------------------------

If you have 4GB ram, you need to change the line that defines the memory
allocation in the default script that starts AIJ.
Current, that is apparently set for 8GB, which is more than you
mentioned that your system has installed.
I would try 3GB instead, so change
-Xmx8192m
to
-Xmx3072m
in the corresponding line of the startup script.

--------------------------

Just to be clear, you now get the new messages after changing to -Xmx3072m ?

If so, could you post the contents of the AIJ startup script, and the
version of Java that is installed on your machine?
