Edit your GameServer_loop.sh file inside the gameserver folder.

i found it out all ok now ^^ thx

open file GameServer_loop.sh with some text editor and change this -Xms1024m -Xmx1024m

on line

java -Djava.util.logging.manager=com.l2jserver.util.L2LogManager -Xms1024m -Xmx1024m -cp ./../libs/*:l2jserver.jar com.l2jserver.gameserver.GameServer > log/stdout.log 2>&1

you can use
-Xms1024m -Xmx1024m >>>> 1GB RAM
-Xms2024m -Xmx2024m >>>> 2GB RAM
-Xms3024m -Xmx3024m >>>> 3GB RAM
-Xms4024m -Xmx4024m >>>> 4GB RAM
-Xms5024m -Xmx5024m >>>> 5GB RAM
-Xms6024m -Xmx6024m >>>> 6GB RAM
or
-Xms1g -Xmx1g >>>> 1GB RAM
-Xms2g -Xmx2g >>>> 2GB RAM
-Xms3g -Xmx3g >>>> 3GB RAM
-Xms4g -Xmx4g >>>> 4GB RAM
-Xms5g -Xmx5g >>>> 5GB RAM
-Xms6g -Xmx6g >>>> 6GB RAM

My server has ram 8G

Can set ram ? for gameserver
-Xms4024m -Xmx4024m >>>> 4GB RAM

[Micr0]

yes
for windows xp/vista/7 etc edit gameserver.bat
for linux or etc edit file GameServer_loop.sh

only change this two line -Xms1024m -Xmx1024m

[MELERIX]

you don't need to increase -Xms like -Xmx, remember that Xms is initial heap size.

if you use 32 bits -Xms1204m should be enough.
if you use 64 bits -Xms2048m should be enough.

also you shouldn't assign whole system memory to -Xmx, because you share system memory with Windows and MySQL.

Hello.

I have Ubuntu and I can't set any of this:

-Xms2024m -Xmx2024m >>>> 2GB RAM
-Xms3024m -Xmx3024m >>>> 3GB RAM
-Xms4024m -Xmx4024m >>>> 4GB RAM
-Xms5024m -Xmx5024m >>>> 5GB RAM
-Xms6024m -Xmx6024m >>>> 6GB RAM

Machine have 16gb RAM

Finally I set -Xms1024M -Xmx1536M and it works but I'm afraid that is not enough.
Any idea how to put more ram?

[jurchiks]

-Xms2g -Xmx8g should be enough for you. Also, how do you know it's not set? You don't actually need l2j to allocate all 16 gigabytes of RAM on startup, that would be insane.

[valdaron]

I have bad feelings, I'll check tomorrow at the morning and I'll let U know.
I tried many options like -Xms1g -Xmx5g, -Xms1024M -Xmx8192M, ..., and I had :

Invalid maximum heap size: -Xmx5g
The specified size exceeds the maximum representable size.
Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine.
