CSV to TMX conver: "Could not create Java virtual machine"?! Thread poster: Alain Dellepiane

Hi all,
I've been using Maxprogram's CSV to TMX conver for a couple of years and with great satisfaction, quickly building TM of everything I come across.
Alas, from this morning, it refuses to start with the warning "Could not create Java virtual machine".

Alas, from this morning, it refuses to start with the warning "Could not create Java virtual machine".
I thought a recent update of Java and the installation of Kaspersky were the culprits, but rolling back the former and disabling the latter got me no result...
And, strangely enough, the same issues applies to all the other tools in the suite except one: "CSV to TBX converter". Needless to say, all my other Java programs work flawlessly.
Anyone had a similar issue or knows a workaround? I start to miss my converter

| | | | | Not enough memory | Jul 27, 2008 |
Hi Alain,
This happens when Windows tells Java that there isn't enough memory to run the program.
The program asks Java to reserve up to 1 GB of memory (virtual or real RAM), but it doesn't mean that all that memory will be used. But Windows says that it does not have enough memory, real or virtual.
The most probable reason why Windows doesn't have virtual memory now when it was available before is that your hard disk is too fragmented or too full.

Try freeing some space and defragmenting the disk. If it doesn't work, send an email to [email protected] and ask for a batch file that lets you start the program with less memory requirements.

Selcuk Akyuz, I have an idea. Reach the command menu, type Dxdiag (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dxdiag) and then click "Save all information". This should create a profile of your machine: we can then send both to Maxprograms and see if they have a minute to help us. ▲ Collapse

How much free memory does Windows report? You can check it in Windows Task Manager, in the Performance tab.
If you search "Could not create Java virtual machine" an Google you will discover that this is a common problem that happens when you try to run a Java program in computers that don't have enough memory available to Java.
After all the other Java apps (including Maxprograms' CSV>TBX) work fine...
TBXMaker's executable requests 500MB to Windows. CSVConverter requests 1GB.
You will have to launch CSVConverter using a .bat file.
Create a file named "csvconverter.bat" in the directory where you installed CSVConverter and put the fllowing content in it:
Code:
| java -Xmx500M -cp "lib\csvconverter.jar;lib\resolver.jar;lib\xml-apis.jar;lib\xercesImpl.jar;lib\Win32\swt.jar" com.maxprograms.csv2tmx.CSVConverter |
|
Double click on the .bat file to launch CSVConverter with 500MB

Rodolfo

Unfortunately, the app still crashes and quits. However, the error message (taken from the terminal window) is quite interesting
C:\Program Files\Maxprograms Utilities>csvconverter.bat

Maybe we can report that one too. Can anyone else try Rodolfo's script and let us know how it goes?
Thank you! ▲ Collapse

Hi,
Windows can't give Java the memory Java requested. It doesn't matter if you have plenty of RAM, Windows doesn't give it to Java.
Do a Google search and you'll find tons of references to this problem in multiple Java applications.
You can fix the problem by running the program with less memory. The script I posted yesterday is for version 1.0-10 (the new one with green squares in the icon, not the old one with an eye in the icon).

| How can I uninstall the program | Jul 28, 2008 |
Hi Rodolfo,
I don't know what the problem is, but it was working without any problems before. There is no problem with the other software which require Java. I now want to uninstall the program, but again the same error message: Could not create the Java virtual machine
I wonder if this problem occurs only with Maxprogram utilities or not? What about Swordfish, any java related problems?

Hi,
Save this script in a .bat file and you will be able to uninstall the programs:
Code:
|
java -Xmx500M -cp "installdata\install.jar;lib\Win32\swt.jar;installdata\jdom.jar" com.maxprograms.installer.Uninstall
