Exception after 5-6 deployments to weblogicServer cluster with the help of Jenkins, build tool used is Ant. Restarting the ManagedServer and Adminconsole temporarily fixes the issue.

Possible duplicate : java8 "java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Metaspace"

What could be the issue ?

Solution

  • Gotcha !

    Admin console is currently holding 2 ManagedServers, both ManagedServers having low MaxMetaspaceSize, updated the value from 512 MB to 1024 MB.

     XX:MaxMetaspaceSize=1024m

    Issue is fixed !
