Running Mage on OSX

by **braden** » 30 Apr 2013, 16:50

Hey, I'm trying to run mage on OSX 10.8 with java 1.6 rev 43 but I keep running into PermGen Space errors when trying to start the client. Is anyone else finding this? Thanks.

PS. I've tried changing the options for MaxPermGen and PermGenSize to over 1048M so that's not the issue.

Thanks

Hello Braden,

as you know I don't use a MAC but just an idea. Did you try out with the 32bit version of Java instead of the 64bit version?
It should be selectable with the -d32 switch.
Look e.g. here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6942063/how-to-run-32-bit-java-on-mac-osx-10-7-lion
Can you post also an example of the error message?

Another idea: Did you try to run the development version from MAGE with netbeans?
I know from noxx that this did work on his mac system.
