JVM Error on Linux

[Kota Sreenivasa Shravana Kumar]

I am getting the following error as soon as I start JIRA on my Linux test system.

Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM warning: Failed to reserve shared memory (errno = 1)

What system or JIRA parameters to change to fix this issue ? Please advise. Thanks

errno = 1 generally implies permission denied. 

Refer (source):  

(errno = 1)
Errno 1 is permission denied. On CentOS 6.x this is usually resolved by adding the Group ID (GID) of the server to /proc/sys/vm/hugetlb_shm_group. In your case the server runs as user dsuser and group dsuser. 

echo <numeric_gid_of_dsuser> > /proc/sys/vm/hugetlb_shm_group

Read the system information page.

When you need to edit them, the memory settings are in the setenv.sh/bat

Nic, How do I check, what is configured in the system ?

It's nothing to do with Jira really. That error usually means that you've tried to allocate more memory to the JVM than your system is configured to allow (either it hasn't got that much memory, or there's a quota or security limit)

64-bit Linux.

[root@test ~]# getconf LONG_BIT
64

Your Linux is 32 or 64 bit?
