Gephi 0.7 Alpha crashes at launch - Mac OS 10.5

[taclab]

hi!

Gephi 0.7 Alpha does not start on my computer. I have an Mac Os X 10.5.8 and GeForce 8600M GT.
I already switch between java 5 and java 6 (see screenshot).

My java -version:
java version "1.6.0_15"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_15-b03-226)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 14.1-b02-92, mixed mode)

Any ideas ?

Thanks,

Mehdi

Hi Mehdi,

Your Mac is recent and has a good graphic card so that should'nt be a problem

Do you see the splash screen ?

If you go to Utilities>Console, is there some java crash report that concern gephi ?

In the directory you launched the application (usually in /Applications/), is a .log file generated ?

Thanks Mathieu!

You seems to have set maximum Java memory to 1500mo ('-Xmx1500m'). That is too much and cause JVM not be able to start. Unfortunately, this happens without notifying the user.

Java 32-bit has its limit around 1500, so set '-Xmx1400m' and it should work. I guess that you have 2Gb of memory.

Thanks for reply

Yes, I have 2Gb ram.

I just upgraded to java 1.6 :
java version "1.6.0_17"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_17-b04-248-9M3125)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 14.3-b01-101, mixed mode)

And I changed memory value : 512m, 1024m, 1400m. nothing! I don't see splash screan.
