Indesign cs5 'out of memory' error when using preflight

I have been regulary getting an 'out of memory' error when i choose to use my bespoke preflight profile.
I have 4gig of ram and run Indesign CS5 on OS 10.6.8.
Does anyone know a work around?
As soon as I select from the basic default profile, i get the beach ball from hell for 10mins, then it kindly lets me know that I am out of memory, sends a crash report to Adobe and then asks if I want to relauch. I'm stuck in a vicious circle. I must of sent my 4th crash report now and no feedback from anyone at Adobe.

I have replaced my preferences, but still the problem persists. I have tried switching my view from typical display to fast display before i selected a profile. I thought this may give me the extra memory I needed to avoid the enevitable crash. I learnt that 2 files were indeed rgb instead of cmyk before it crashed again. So I switched them to cmyk and tried again, selected my bespoke profile, but yet again it crashed. I think the problem lies with the file, not Indesign, as i have tried the same profile on a different file and the program doesn't crash and runs as it should. So if in future I need to use said crashing file again, firstly i will need to try Peter's isolate fix method. Otherwise i'll never be able to progress to successful a pdf.

Out of memory error, while using Adobe InDesign

I have been running Adobe inDesign for a couple of years with no problems. This is the first time I got a, "Out of memory" error when attempting to save the document as a PDF.
Windows 7, Dell Studio XPS, 2.80 GHz Processor, Memory: 9 GB Dram, Hard Drive: 1.5 TB, 1.56 MB cache.
Firefox v33.02
What should I do to get back the memory?
Thank you,
Don Schaaf

Hi Don, is this an Adobe site you are using in a Firefox tab, or the stand-alone InDesign application?
If it's in the application, you may want to try Adobe's forum. You also could try closing other open applications to have them release memory and then try creating the PDF again.
Please note that if Firefox has been running for a long time and is using a lot of memory, it may take several minutes to release it all, as various files are (slowly) updated at shutdown. You can monitor its progress in the Windows Task Manager on the Process tab. Press Ctrl+Shift+Esc to open the Task Manager, and then click the processes tab. Firefox will be listed under firefox.exe here. Please allow it to shut down normally instead of using the End Process button, unless it appears to hang (no movement in the amount of memory used for several minutes).

Out of memory error when sending messages

Hello!
I have OS X 10.4.10 and I have an email account setup (IMAP)in mail.
Lately when I go to send a message, I get an "Out of Memory" error that it says is coming from the mail server, but I know for a fact that it's not a server issue (mail account works on a PC fine). If I try to send it again it goes through just fine.
Any ideas?

You are building an HTML table with 1500 rows? That is definitely a lot. And I assume you are also putting some styling on that table...
These days programmers resource to [url en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AJAX]AJAX techniques for things like that.
You can, for example, send the table data as a list of comma separated values, and then use Javascript on the browser to create a partial table with options to browse through the different pages of data.
If you need to show all that data in one single page, you can still try sending just the data as CSV or XML and then building the table on the browser via a Javascript loop. Use CSS for the styling so you don't overload the HTML code with styling information.

Hi,
I have a bit of a problem. I?m trying to generate
quite a large JSP file (a table with about 1500
rows). The problem is that I get an out of memory
error when the JSP is being generated. And it is
definitely that the JSP is too large, or rather the
HTML being generated from it. Now I was under the
impression that the JSP page was flush now and again,
but I tried to set all the different flush options
and I have also tried to manually flush the page.
Nothing of this made any difference except for
displaying a white page instead of an error page
since the header was already sent. Now this suggests
to me that the page is being cached internally by the
server and then sent to the client. So is there
anything I can do about this?

Out of Memory Error when Saving SequenceFile generated using API

I am currently developing an application that creates a SequenceFile using .NET 4.0, C# (2010), Windows 7 Pro x64, Dual Core 2.5 GHz, 3.0Gb Memory. Using the API EngineClass, I create a complete SequenceFile based on user/file inputs and then save it to disk. When I'm done, I save using SequenceFile.Save() and then release using ReleaseSequenceFileEx().
For smaller files, there is no problem. For larger files, I sporadically get the following error:
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0xFFFFBD98): Out of memory.
When the file does save, it is ~2.8Mb. Breaking the file up is not an option. I am not looping, this is one shot. I've tried shutting down VS2010 and restarting the computer. It is still inconsistent on saving.
I also had to set the Embed Interop Types to False per guidance from NI. They said that it is unstable in 4.0.
Questions
1. Is there a file limit size to the Save() API function?
2. Is there a workaround to using the Save()?
Best Regards
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I am using C#.NET. I called them in my save method immediately prior to the actual test save sequence.
GC.Collect();
GC.WaitForPendingFinalizers();
GC.Collect();
GC.WaitForPendingFinalizers();
try
       CurrentSequenceFile.Save(outputPath);
       catch (Exceptionerror)
       FireLogEvent(ParserLogType.Parsing_Error, string.Format("{0}", error));
Factory.TSEngine.ReleaseSequenceFileEx(CurrentSequenceFile, ReleaseSeqFileOptions.ReleaseSeqFile_UnloadFile);
Hope this helps

Out of Memory Errors when Exporting Slideshows

Hi -
I've been using LR for sometime now. Today, for the first time ever, I attempted to export a slideshow as a .pdf file, 90% quality setting, 48 slides total. LR created a 41MB file. However, when I played it back, there were many slides which only showed an empty frame with the message "out of memory error" upside down in the lower left corner of the frame. The same slides displayed the message each time I played it, so I'm sure the problem stemmed from creating the file, not showing it.
I have a core 2 duo machine with 4GB Ram and no other applications running at the time I exported the slideshow.
Any thoughts on this? BTW, I'm running version 1.2
Thanks!
E-

Try restarting and reexporting. OOM errors have little to do with how much memory you have or how much is available.

Out of memory errors when trying to sync local and remote sites

We cannot get our remote and local sites synchronized for the first time. We have a huge site and we get out or memory errors or the synch just doesn't work. Any solutions or insights?
Our site has 9,000+ HTML files and accompanying images, pdfs, etc. When we try to synch the remote to the local for the first time, it just will not happen. Every once in a while someone gets lucky, but for the most part, we either get an "out of memory" error or the synch just doesn't work, and it doesn't tell us anything. It just stops responding. HELP!

Hi dmooresatx,
I am not aware of the limitations of the file sizes that are allowed for a successful sync operation. If you are using a purchased version of Dreamweaver CC, send me your Adobe ID along with your contact details (phone, email number). Click on my picture and use the message option. If you are using a team license, get these details from your administrator.
Thanks,

Getting HeapDump on out of memory error when executing method through JNI

I have a C++ code that executes a method inside the jvm through the JNI.
I have a memory leak in my java code that results an out of memory error, this exception is caught in my C++ code and as a result the heap dump is not created on the disk.
I am running the jvm with
-XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError
-XX:HeapDumpPath=C:\x.hprof
Any suggestions?
Thanks

I'll rephrase it then.
I have a java class named PbsExecuter and one static method in it ExecuteCommand.
I am calling this method through JNI (using CallStaticObjectMethod). sometimes this method causes the jvm to throw OutOfMemoryError and I would like to get a heap dump on the disk when this happens in order to locate my memory leak.
I've started the jvm with JNI_CreateJavaVM and I've put two options inside the JavaVMInitArgs that is used to create the Jvm. -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError and -XX:HeapDumpPath=C:\x.hprof
which supposed to create a heap dump on the disk when OutOfMemoryError occurs.
Normally if I would execute normal java code, when this exception would occur and I wouldn't catch it the Jvm would crash and the heap dump would be created on the disk.
Since I need to handle errors in my C++ code I am use ExceptionOccured() and extracts the exception message from the exception it self and write it.
For some reason when I execute this method through JNI it doesn't create the dump.

Out of memory error when rendering.

I edited a 40 minute show (25P) using Aspect 3.4 codec. When I export to DVD in low quality 1 pass everything is okay. However, when I export to DVD in High Quality 1 pass or low quality 2 pass I get an error half way through the rendering (out of memory error). What's the story?

Try:
Error:Out of memory

Weblogic generating out of memory error when commandline run doesn't

Hello,
I am just beginning to use weblogic. I have a jar file which runs fine if run from command line with the options
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin\java" -jar -Xms1024m -Xmx1024m Report.jarIt connects to oracle and selects some data around (500k records) and writes it to a csv.
When I run the same jar from within a web application (I mean obvoiusly a servlet calling the jar's main method) the webapp generates
out of memory error after 80k records itself.
I tried changing the configuration the server Startup arguments from the console (Server Start and then Arguments) and then restart.
I just wrote the same thing there -Xms1024m -Xmx1024m
I guess I am missing something. Please share your answers.
Environment :
Win2k8, weblogic 10gR3, jdk 1.5. The application is installed as a service.
Thanks,
Neetesh

If you are not using NodeManager, then I don't think those server settings actually control anything. If you are just exploring WLS, then I suspect you are simply starting an AdminServer in a basic domain and don't have a cluster/nodemanager based environment. I could be wrong, please correct as needed!
If you are simply starting your WebLogic Server instance using the startWebLogic.sh|cnd script, you can set an environment variable on the command shell that will be picked up and used when the server starts.
set USER_MEM_ARGS=-Xmx1024 -Xms1024m
* apply appropriate *nix changes as appropriate.
Then use the startWebLogic.sh|cmd script to start the server and test your application.
It may very well be the case that your particular application consumes > 1GB heap so you may need more. Remember that you now have a server environment running over your "main" class, so there is bound to be more memory used that could be just sneaking your heap use over 1GB. For example.

"Out of memory" error when receiving "Bytes" via Webservices.

When I receive Byte content via Webservices over 3.5MB, I get Out of memory error.
Does Everybody know how to solve this problem?
I'm using TomCat 4.1 [and 5.0.28 too] with Axis.

Then you are not using them correctly. If I set up my stream to read into 2K buffers, then my memory overhead should not significantly exceed 2K when reading the file. My bet is you are reading everything into memory and then writing it.
Post some code. Not the whole application or even the whole class, just the part performing I/O. And please use the 'code' formatting button above when doing so. Then, perhaps, we can help diagnose your issue.

InDesign CC Out of Memory Error message problem

I am getting an Out of Memory Error message in InDesign CC and it is crashing. Very unusual and not a particularly lage file. Contains a few PDFs and crashes tend to be when scrolling- is it a screen redraw problem?

Does it have an SSD or conventional hard drive? How much free space?
For testing you should create and log into a new user account and see if the problem persists. That will narrow the possibilities to either user-related or document/application/system problems of some sort. Is this happening frequently? More than the one file? If it's just the one, try this: Remove minor corruption by exporting

Why do I get out of memory errors when 10GB memory is free?

I am on HP UNIX 64bit 11.23 titanium, running Oracle 10.2.0.3. . My server has 24GB memory and of that 10GB is free (as seen in glance). When I doing oracle exp or rman commands, I get:
ORA-04030: out of process memory when trying to allocate 1049112 bytes (KSFQ heap,KSFQ Buffers)
I checked both rman and exp are 64bit executables, so they should be able to access all the memory on the system.

I have just one parameter in init.ora sga_target which controls everything in SGA. hw two instance I was reporting porblem have sga_target of 256M and 192M, Problems happen off and on, but 9 to 10GN free memory is alwyas available on server.
Her is more information on the problem:
1.     I do not think problem is with ulimit, but something is definitely not set correctly. Ulimit -a
time(seconds) unlimited
file(blocks) unlimited
data(kbytes) 4194300
stack(kbytes) 131072
memory(kbytes) unlimited
coredump(blocks) 4194303
parameters are reasonable.
2.     I have 10GB free memory. I run simple java command
Java
it works.
3.     Now I increase memory for sga_target for one of my Oracle instance from 256M to 512M. I only hav eon eparameter sga_traget which controls everything in SGA. There are many other Oracle instances on the server. My Oracle instance starts without problems.
4.     I now run java, it gives me:
Out of memory error, so Oracle has exhausted some memory (probably shared memory) which is needed by java. I still have 9-10GB memory on my server, so why java is not using this memory.
5.     After iOracle instance starts, off and on Oracle backups fail with ORA- error (not enough memory) I reported earlier.
I hope HP engineers can figure this out.

Out of Memory Error when transcoding

I am using winXP and Encore CS3. I don't have anything else open. My project is complete, but I cannot burn to DVD because I get this Out of Memory error, save and close to avoid loss. I am trying to transcode the audio track for the DVD. I've made 3 different projects. On one of the projects, I just downloaded, it did transcode. All of my menu work is in another program. Is there a way to get this one transcoded file over to the other project. Then I could be finished and burn. I don't understand why this one transcode will not work. the other music I brought in as assets for the menu and submenu transcoded fine. Sometime it will say 'transcode preset error'. I went all the way back to Premiere and changed setting there in hopes. can anyone help please

Thanks, disheartening? I'm distraught.
Everything else works, but not Encore. I tried to reinstall, but it keeps saying it cannot install until I close Bridge.
Bridge is not open.
I restarted. I uninstalled an earlier verion of Bridge.
Nothing doing.
still wants me to close Bridge.
I hate to do the whole thing over because of encore.
Help me think of a workaround!
