GC Warning: Insufficient space for /proc read

Hello,
I have a shared library that uses gcj functionality.
I'm getting the following warning message:
"GC Warning: Insufficient space for /proc read"
In a call to JvAttachCurrentThread() inside the shared library.
And latter my library crash with 'Segmentation fault' when I try to use a java functionality.
The warning message and the 'Segmentation fault' are not at the same time and may be a coincidence.
I could not reproduce the error in a small "Hello World" program, so I think it has some thing to do with my application.
But this only happens in solaris, when I compile and run my application in Linux, it does not happen.
Scenario that works:
Linux
Application compiled with gcc-3.3.3
Shared library compiled with gcc-3.3.3
Scenario that does not work:
Solaris 8
Application compiled with Forte/SunCC 8
Shared library compiled with gcc-3.3.3
Only the shared library uses gcj functionality, the application is only C++.
What is this warning message about ?
Luis

I'm seeking recommendations for the actual size of a scratch disk. I've been searching over 100 posts before finding the information I was looking for here! Great. Patience is a virtue after all.
On this post it says an hour of video makes about a 13.5 BG files SO -- would that be a good size for the scratch disk, more of less, 'cause I want to make a 45-minute edited video.
One post indicated it might be a good idea to have a sequence of scratch disk, i.e. to set of maybe one scratch disk at 20GBs and then another at 20 GBs, etc. rather than have one big 200GB scratch disk?
Any information or ideas helpful. I've been upgrade hardware and software and ready to finally dive in to all this cool stuff. (Note: The manual had no actual size recommendation, but I'm gonna check out other online sources right now). Thanks.

  • Insufficient space for a movie

    My iPad is telling me there is insufficient space for me to download a movie but I just bought more data so I know there is enough! Any ideas as to why it is doing this?

    You cannot buy more memory for your ipad at all.
    I am guessing that you purchased icloud storage, which has nothing at all to do with the storage capacity of your ipad.
    You need to delete some content from the ipad to make more room.

  • Error message: insufficient space for update; update is 14mb, space available is 2gb. ?

    Most recent update downloads but does not install. There is enough space unless I'm looking at this the wrong way.

    Firefox is installed to the system folder. Please check to see that there about 20-40mb of free space for update.

  • Insufficient space for importing TM backup with migration assistant

    First of all this is not for my main Mountain Lion installation on my Mac Pro, it is on a VM Ware Fusion virtual Mountain Lion installation that is running on my Mac Pro also running Mountain Lion. So this is really more a question dealing with VM Ware Fusion (or Parallels since I have the same issue with that as well) vs. a problem with Mountain Lion. Confused yet? I sure am....
    I am trying to import a time machine backup of my previous Snow Leopard drive into my virtual machine. I did not want to import this into my new drive because I am starting fresh and trying to clean up and Snow Leopard had 10 years worth of crus I am trying to get rid of, but I would still like to have my old SL drive running within VM Ware to help with the transition. I have a Mac Pro with a dual monitor set up so I want it to run in my second monitor and very slowly over the next few weeks get all the files I want and need instead of just importing a bunch of useless crap. 
    Anyway, here is the problem I am having and cannot seem to get past this hurdle. When I open migration assistant inside VM Ware ML  and choose my time machine backup of snow leopard everything works fine until it finishes calculating the size. I deselected all the files and folder I possibly can which leaves 209GB. Even with every single folder deselcted it still give an insufficient storage error I have already resized the VMware drive to 400GB which is more than enough. In my real machine under Finder>Get Info it shows it as 400GB, but within the virtual machine it is only showing the Mac HD to be 40GB which won't allow migration assistant to import the backup due to insuffient storage.
    I have a Mac Pro with tons of disk space so I have plenty of free space to allocate but I have tried everything I can think of but came up blank. Sorry if my explanation was overly verbose or confusing but I wanted to give as much detail as possible. Haven't really fiddled with the settings in VM Ware in a while so I must be missing something.
    So, how do you import files showing as larger than 40GB from a time machine backup with migration assistant without getting an error that there is not enough remaining space? And again, I have already resized the disk to 400GB that shows as 400GB on my real machine but only as 40GB inside the VM Ware Mac HD. I also have Parallels if that is easier to do what I am trying to accomplish.

    I just solved the problem! And this is actually a pretty big deal because experts at the VM Ware Fusion website and many other forums told me it was impossible.
    So here is the guide to running Mountain Lion in VM Ware Fusion or Parallels with a partition larger than 40GB and allows you to import an old user account from Tiger, Snow Leopard, Lion, etc..
    1) Make sure to shut down Mountain Lion in VM
    2) Under VM settings expand hard drive to whatever size you like
    3) You will need either a disk image or an actual DVD of mountain lion, mount that in your VM and choose it as start up. After rebooting open disk utility and partition Mac HD. Instead of only showing the 40GB limit it shold now show the size you created from step 2. Close disk utility and install Mountain Lion as normal. Reboot and unmount disk image.
    4) You now have a virtual Mountain Lion with whatever hard disk size you chose.
    5) Open migration assistant and do your time machine back up as normal from previous systems.
    The reason you might want to do this are many. In my case I wanted to have my old Snow Leopard user account open and running on my second monitor since I just did a fresh install on my Mac Pro. It is easy to import audio, photos, videos but there was a lot of other things I want to take my time bringinging over. There are also many cases where I needed to open up an app and view settings. Now I have my old machine essentially running at the same time as my new install side by side which is fantastic.

  • Insufficient space for upgrade - IPS4345

    Greetings,
    I am attempting to upgrade the code on my Cisco IPS4345 (IPS-4345-K9 running OS version 2.6.29.1 code 7.1(4) and 7.1(6)). However, I am receiving an error similar to "The update requires xxxx KB in /usr/cids/idsRoot/var, there are only xxxx KB available after pmz cleanup."
    On another form I found someone having a similar issue and it was suggested to perform the following commands. However, these commands are not accepted on my appliances (neither 7.1.4 or 7.1.6).
    #rm -rf /usr/cids/idsRoot/var/updates/files/S69
    #rm -rf /usr/cids/idsRoot/var/updates/files/common
    #rm /usr/cids/idsRoot/var/virtualSensor/*
    #rm /usr/cids/idsRoot/var/.tmp/*
    Any suggestions?

  • HT3231 insufficient space for full migration

    Hi all,
    Ive just changed from an iMac to an Air and trying to use migration assistant. My problem is that the iMac has a 1TB drive and the Air is only 128GB.
    Can I use an external HDD to add more storage to the Air for the migration so that I can get everything off in one go?
    Thanks

    I think you need to add the external drive to the iMac and move all of your media files on to that first. You applications and the OS should easily fit inside 128GB.
    Then use migration assistant for the whatever is left on your iMac boot drive and plug the external HDD into the MacBook Air to access everything that is on there.
    You can't specify with migration assistant where to put different files, so just plugging the external drive into the Air first isn't going to help.

  • I used to be able to burn photos onto a CD-R disc. Now I insert a new, blank disc and am told there is insufficient spac available for my selected year of photos. Even when reducing the date to ONE photo, I still get the same message. Confused.

    I used to be able to burn a selection of photos from my iPhoto library onto a CD-R disc. Today I inserted a new blank disc and was shown a message that there was insufficient space for my chosen year of photos. Even when I reduced the date to include only ONE photo!- the message was the same. I am at a loss as to why, and what to do. My iMac is about 7 years old and upgraded to Snow leopard. Any bright ideas?

    Camelot wrote:
    When burning a CD-R, the OS first creates a 'shadow' disk image that replicates what the CD will look like, then it copies that data to the CD-R itself. Therefore you need enough free space on your internal drive to create this temporary image. If your internal hard drive is full you won't be able to create the shadow, and that could be what you're seeing.
    If the OP's disk is too full to permit the creation of a 700MB disk image, it's a wonder that the computer is functioning.

  • Insufficient space

    Hey all, I'm trying to download new applications for my curve but it declares I have insufficient space for the application. I have a memory stick in my phone for added storage so I was wondering if there's a way to check how full your phone's memory is or if you an download applications to a memory stick. Muchly appreciated

    hello,
    BlackBerry devices are not compatible with Memory Stick cards. You probably have Micro-SDHC card.
    That being said, applications can be installed on a very specific part of the device memory.
    On old devices, it's the device memory itself, on recent devices, it's a part of the device memory called "application memory".
    you can check one or both :
    home screen >> options >> status >> file free
    home screen >> options >> memory >> application memory
    you cannot install an application elsewhere.
    if you do home screen >> options >> status >> file free >> menu >> show databases
    you can see how your device memory is filled. For example many people have a memory card, but store their MP3s and pictures on the device memory.

  • More space for widgets

    Dear All,
    Problem: Toolbar at the top of the screen has a finite size. It is populated as follows from left to right:
    1) Apple icon on the top left
    2) Drop down menu headers for current application
    3) Miscellaneous other useful things such as the date, a battery charge indicator, spotlight etc, some standard and some that can optionally be added such as a network throughput monitor.
    If there's insufficient space for all these the menus for the current application (2) have precedence over the miscellaneous widgets (3) and some of the latter are hiddden.
    Is there a way of showing widgets obscured in this way?
    I can get half way there: If I select a visible drop down menu on the top right of the screen and then press the left arrow, the next drop down menu to the left appears even if the icon at the top is obscured. The problem is that say with the network activity monitor the activity is shown in the icon which is obscured and not in the drop down menu.
    I wish it were possible to click on the inch or so of blank bar between the application drop down menu headers and the miscellaneous widgets and have the hidden icons shown.
    Otherwise is it possible to make the bar wider or put the widgets somewhere else, e.g. the dashboard?
    Regards, Max
    p.s. thought I'd posted this a few days ago but it doesn't appear in my posts or my questions list - if you think you've seen this somewhere before you probably have!

    Thanks for your response. Menu extras - I'll make a note of that. However:
    I don't buy the argument about third party menu extras being the problem, taking up too much space. I ran a search under system settings to see how many entries I could find offering to put one or more icons in the menu bar. Here's the result:
    Finder
    Date
    Synchronisation
    Battery Status (external power and battery charge)
    AirPort status
    BlueTooth Status
    Keyboard - national setting
    Volume
    Modem status
    Bluetooth status
    PPPoE status
    Apple icon (top left)
    I haven't checked that the synchronisation or bluetooth or PPoE search hits correspond to menu extras but all the others do. I don't have blootooth (yet) and haven't subscribed to .Mac but I could so they should be counted.
    In toto (by the primitive mechanism of ruler on screen and assuming that the menu extras that I don't have up already are the same size as the smallest of those that I do have) that leaves me with 14.5 cm (6") in which to put the application specific menu entries on a 24.6 cm (10") wide screen, default resolution. That's 59% of the screen width, and insufficient space for the Safari menu items (with my language settings anyway).
    I know the argument about an item on the edge of the screen being easier to select than one in the middle, but getting to an item at all must surely take priority over getting to it easily.
    Besides this is software - it's meant to be easy to change. The default answer to most customisation questions should be: sure, just change this bit of code - it's so superbly documented that it won't take you half an hour to get the hang of it.
    I'd pay a small sum - maybe 5 USD - or do half an hour of programming for a nice solution to the minor irritation of the menu bar problem. I'd pay more and put more effort into almost anything else on my wishlist. I shall therefore quietly set the problem to one side and consider the more vital things in life. Thanks again for the info regarding the guidelines. Appreciated anyway.

  • Is there a discrete, limited space for apps on the macbook air?

    I bought a new "air" for my wife and she loves it but ...  Yesterday a message popped up about insufficient space for apps. The box popped up repeatedly and could not be dismissed.  Today, on "spec" I deleted the Google Chrome app and restarted the machine and now it seems OK.  I want to know more.

    I realize this is a small "hard drive" but she has had it only 2 weeks and it is not loaded up (yet).  What I really want to know is if discrete sections of the solid state drive have been pre-designated for certain tasks. Specifically is there a limited amount of space given to apps?
    No, there is just 'space' and you can put anything you want in it.

  • I have followed Apple support Article HT4527 for moving itunes but have insufficient space on my new PC for the complete library of.  How can I leave music on the external HDD but associate the content on my external HDD with my pc itunes when it is open?

    I have followed the Apple Support Section Article HT 4527 and have moved itunes media onto an external Hard Drive.  The complete file is 103GB in size.
    I have downloaded the latest itunes onto my new PC.
    When I follow the article and try moving the itunes file onto the new PC, I am informed that there is insufficient space on my new PC.
    In any case, like my old system, I want to leave my music on the external HDD and just have the music library displayed in itunes when I click on the "Music" folder.
    How can I get itunes on the new computer to interogate my external HDD to just list the library and leave the music on the external HDD?

    you can do this by keeping the external hard drive connected and doing the following
    -hold shift key down on computer while opening iTunes and a prompt will appear to choose a library
    -select choose library, iTunes should bring up your explorer windows where you can search for the external HD
    -after you find the external HD find the iTunes folder you just copied to it
    -after opening the iTunes folder look for the file that says iTunes library.itl or if you can't see that extenstion just look for a document looking thing in the iTunes folder that shows up as a database file
    -double click the database file and boom iTunes should load your library without having to copy it to the computer
    PS: do make sure that if you are going to do it this way, make sure that the external HD is connected at all times, because if you don't then you will get exclamation marks next to your iTunes songs
    double PS: if you are unsure how to find out if the iTunes library file is a database file just right click it and choose properties and under the type it should say database file
    hope this helps:)

  • 180 GB of my 639-GB Macintosh hard drive is used. 320 GB of my 498-GB Tie Capsule is used. Only one backup ("now") exists for the Time Capsule, which can no longer backup because of "insufficient space". How come? What is wrong?"

    180 GB of my 639-GB Macintosh hard drive is used. 320 GB of my 498-GB Tie Capsule is used. Only one backup ("now") exists for the Time Capsule, which can no longer backup because of "insufficient space". How come? What is wrong?"

    Thank you William for your most helpful response. I shall deal first with your three comments:
    Not being tech savvy, I would not have been able to make that call myself but it sure makes sense.
    I have updated my profiles as you suggest.  Excellent tip.
    This guidance is good.  Being new to Apple Support Communities, I did not find the field a labeling and guidance to be clear, a point you make.  Now I know, I shall do as you say and will use the small slim box as a header to the full message/question, which will place in the larger box below.
    Secondly, I come to your question: Did anything change on your Mac recently, such as replacing the disk or main logic board?
    The answer is “yes”.  Two events have happened both of which concerned the Time Capsule:
    The telephone company, with which I have access to the Internet and I have my email account, installed a new modum.  After the technician left I had to try and get the Time Capsule and WiFi working again which ended with my having to call Apple for technical assistance.  The Apple technician walked me through a number of procedural steps which effectively re-set up the Time Capsule. 
    Access to the Internet failed and the telephone company reset the modum.  I had to call Apple again.  This time the technician did not reset the Time Capsule but walked me through a number of steps tha included renaming the “site”  (not the Time Capsule).
    Another piece of information that may be relevant is that the MacBook Pro uses the Time Capsule for backup.  Everything appears to be in order.  When I enter the Time Capsule for this laptop I have backups going back for a long time.
    Also, I do a weekly backup of the two computers onto another external hard drive using the Time Machine software.  So I have another backup of both computers.

  • "Insufficient disk space for encoding" There is!!!!

    Hi,
    I've got a problem that is really driving me crazy.
    When ever I write an .img or even burn to disk, the following comes up:
    "Insufficient disk space for encoding. Please free up disk space on your encoding target drive"
    This is untrue. I have 6.95 GB left on my hard drive, plenty on my LaCie drives and enough on my DVD-R. I really don't know what the problem is. I've written DVDs with less than 6.95 GB before.
    Can anyone help?
    Many Thanks,
    Pete Cooke

    That's not enough, when your hard drive gets about 80% full, then you may begin to see this issue. There is alot of files that are temporary, that also use disk space during the build process.
    You really need alot more space than what you currently have left, (like 20GB) or more.
    Look, I know that some here are on a shoe string budget, but the prices that ATA firewire drives are at now, there cheep. I just saw one on deal-mac.com, (250GB ATA, internal) for $80.00 and a 160GB for $40.00. You could replace your current firewire drive, for not much.
    I know, you don't want to open the external firewire drive inclosure, that's ok, I also have a solution for that. It's a one time expense, but get a firewire bridge, like the one Wiebetech.com sells for $120.00 and from then on, you can just purchase raw internal HD's on sale as the need arises and plug those drives in via the 6pin firewire bridge from Wiebetech. This has saved me allot cash on purchasing the fire interface over and over, (as you have to do when purchasing an external firewire drive.)
    I just move the Wiebetech drive dock firewire bridge from drive to drive as needed, I now have 4 of them. It also allows me to quickly archive off footage to an ATA drive quickly, as well as use that footage from that drive while authoring a DVD or FCP project.
    I have looked at other solution like this, but this seems to be the lowest cost per GB & buck, ($.)

  • Insufficient disk space for encoding. disk space on encoding target drive?

    I keep having this message when I try to burn\enconde\build a DVD with DVDSP 4, I'm setting the Build folder in a external hard drive with 300Gigas free, so for sure is not the porblem...
    Insufficient disk space for encoding. Please free up disk space on your encoding target drive
    What should I do?? its kind of urgent!
    Cheers,
    Javier

    Ah Ha!
    I found this in a 2-pop forum - it may be the solution...
    "Are you both using the DVDSP Background encoder? If so, make sure the *DESTINATIONS PREFERENCE for ENCODING is pointing to the disk drive that actually HAS the free space* - normally, it points to the SAME FOLDER where the asset is living. If you're short on space on that drive, that will trigger the condition you describe... - always maintain this free space "
