Phpstorm not starting after memory dump error












2














I got an error message that not enough memory while pushing code and then I pressed the "Shutdown" button on that error and since that popup phpstorm does not start. Double clicking on the icon does nothing. Task Manager shows no phpstorm process running.



I uninstalled, restarted the pc and reinstalled, still the same problem. I have no idea what is going on here. Every other application on my system is working as it should.



I got an error similar to this:

          Most probably the issue is that JVM can't allocate the requested heap on start. Oracle JVM requires a single chunk of continuous memory (more or less equal to the sum of Xmx and XX:MaxPermSize parameters values) to initialize. On Windows systems 32-bit java can only allocate up to 2 Gb. And any libraries that inject themselves into process memory will reduce this solid block. So it seems that Xmx value you have set is just too much for 32-bit JVM. Please try reducing it to 1024m or 750m, for example - does it work? You need changing PhpStorm.exe.vmoptions file accordingly

            What worked for me was updating the phpstorm.exe.vmoptions file in the C:Users.PhpStorm2016.3 directory.



            I changed the Xmx value back to 1024. My errors occurred when I made it 2048 but when I changed it back, PHPStorm worked again. This is for my 32-bit copy.

              There was some unknown issue with Java on the system so I downloaded the Dev Kit from here after uninstalling phpstorm, and then installed phpstorm and the 64-bit version works as it should.

              • For me, simply uninstalling Java and installing the latest version fixed it. This was for my 32-bit version.

                for me deleting the directory



                C:Users.PhpStorm2016.3

                  I am using PhpStorm2017.3 and to make it work, I had to delete the folder .IntelliJIdea2017.3 from the following location:



                  C:Usersadmin.IntelliJIdea2017.3



                  For your case, you will have to dig in to the correct folder i.e. the folder "admin" above could be a different folder in your case, so I highly recommend you check it or you may not find the .IntelliJIdea2017.3 folder in it.

                                      What worked for me was updating the phpstorm.exe.vmoptions file, located in the C:Program Files (x86)JetBrainsPhpStorm 10.0.4bin folder.



                                      My errors occurred just after I changed the Xmx value from 1024 to 2048. I couldn't make the program run anymore, even after restarting the PC.
                                      Then I changed the Xmx value back to 1024 and restarted the PC. After that, PHPStorm worked again.

                                                    I am using PhpStorm2017.3 and to make it work, I had to delete the folder .IntelliJIdea2017.3 from the following location:



                                                    C:Usersadmin.IntelliJIdea2017.3



                                                    For your case, you will have to dig in to the correct folder i.e. the folder "admin" above could be a different folder in your case, so I highly recommend you check it or you may not find the .IntelliJIdea2017.3 folder in it.
