Note: please note that Liferay has renamed its Liferay Experience Could offerings to Liferay SaaS (formerly LXC) and Liferay PaaS (formerly LXC-SM).

Issue

  • Sometimes on the logs appears below error
    Caused by: javax.servlet.ServletException: java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Metaspace
    This is caused because Metaspace value is set to 512 Megabytes. DXP 7.4 needs at least 768 Megabytes of Metaspace to work properly.

Environment

  • Liferay PaaS using DXP 7.4

Resolution

  • Add a new environment variable to liferay service via LCP.json:
    "CATALINA_OPTS_METASPACE": "-XX:MaxMetaspaceSize=768m -XX:MetaspaceSize=768m"
