JAVA error - browser failure

[lpadron]

Have been using Subsonic for several days. Based it on a VISTA (fully updated) 4gb HP laptop. Everything more or less worked correctly until this morning.

Received the following JAVA MEMORY error (below) when starting the browser (tried both Chrome and IE 7). The browser locks up and never finishing populating the UI.

Tried reinstalling Subsonic. Tried reinstalling JAVA. Nothing works. Here's the error:

Assign more memory to your subsonic. You should be able to change the basic settings from your windows start menu (Windows Installation Instructions)

After that, you'll have to restart your Subsonic.

Thanks Gonzo for the suggestion. How (step by step) do I assign more memory to a service? I've gone into properties for the SUBSONIC service. Don't see a way to assign more memory to a service from properties.

FYI . . . total memory is 4gb - OS is 64 bit Vista - Page file is set to 6127mb.

Click the Subsonic icon in the tray, then click the "settings" tab, change the field "Memory Limit", click "Save Settings".

Luterin, thanks!

Changed mem to 300 from 100. Fixed!!! Thanks.

BTW, Sindre. Subsonic is incredible. Love it!!!

Just wish there was a better abbreviation for Subsonic than "SS." Not a good thing especially considering history in Norway a few years back.

Thanks for all!!!
