Adding shapefile datastore causes java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: GEOS-2611
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-2611
Project: GeoServer
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 1.7.0 , 1.7.2, 1.7.1
Environment: Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 4 (Nahant Update 4)
Kernel 2.6.9-42.ELsmp #1 SMP i686
Intel Pentium 4 CPU 3.06GHz
2GB RAM
Java JDK 1.5.0u12
Reporter: Paul
Assignee: Andrea Aime
In GeoServer 1.7.0 and newer, I get a OutOfMemoryError when I try to add a shapefile datastore to the configuration. This same test worked with 1.6.5 and earlier versions. I go to DataStores and click "new", select "shapefile" and specify an ID, and on the next screen I specify the path to the file. I leave the charset at its default ISO-8859-1, and the spatial index and memory mapped buffer options are left off.
When I click the "submit" button, I wait for 20+ seconds without seeing any response. Then I see this error on the console:
form connection params { url=file:data/shapefile_geography/LOW_Lakes.shp, charset=ISO-8859-1}

I have tried running GeoServer using the default bin/startup.sh script. I've also tried using the following startup options:
-server -Xms48m -Xmx256M
The error occurs in both cases.
