(Repeated for each class?)

When tries the installation from another system, we are getting an error of "Could not allocate enough heap space to Java"

Steps to Reproduce

Run the Pega 7.1.9 install program.

Root Cause

The first root cause of Closed Connection is not known.

The system from where userr was running the installation was not able to allocate enough memory to JAVA HEAP. The automatic as well as the script installer was failing.

Resolution

Perform the following local-change: 

Run the PEGA installer manually using the command "java -Xmx1536m -jar PRPC_Setup.jar".

In this instance JVM memory parameter is set as -Xmx1536m because, beyond this value the system was not able to allocate the HEAP size.

The installation is run successfully.
