[Geoserver-users] Tomcat tuning for geoserver - Layer previews all blank

Hi,

I work on Debian Jessie with JAVA7, Tomcat 8, Geoserver 2.8 and Iceweasel as web browser.

To improve Tomcat and geoserver use I created a setenv.sh file with export CATALINA_OPTS=“$CATALINA_OPTS -server -Xms2G -Xmx2G -XX:PermSize=512m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m”

Is it good ? CATALINA seems to be just for the loading of tomcat, so does it make sense to increase the PermSize in Catalina in order to optimize Geoserver ? Where to that then ?

I need also to add JAVA_OPTS=“-Djava.awt.headless=true” but I don’t know where (somebody told me to set it in /etc/default/tomcat but it doesn’t exist for me… where am I supposed to set this java option ?)

I may solve my blank layer preview problem…

If you have other advice to optimize geoserver, don’t hesitate to say !

Thanks for your help !

Should be OK, Tomcat should pick those up on startup.

You can add it in your setenv.sh script as well.

I just tried it, but

my layer previews are still blank frames L

I did that in my setenv.sh file :

export CATALINA_OPTS=“$CATALINA_OPTS -server -Xms2G -Xmx2G -XX:PermSize=512m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m -Djava.awt.headless=true”

Is it OK ? is there any difference between catalina_opts and java_opts ?

They are used in different places, but for your purposes they should be
equivalent.

Can you open a terminal, run this command:

ps -lfe | grep java

...and share the output? We should be able to confirm that Tomcat actually
picked up your custom options by looking at the command run by the startup
script.

I need also to add JAVA_OPTS=“-Djava.awt.headless=true” but I don’t know where (somebody told me to set it in /etc/default/tomcat but it doesn’t exist for me… where am I supposed to set this java option ?)

You can add it in your setenv.sh script as well.

I may solve my blank layer preview problem…

If you have other advice to optimize geoserver, don’t hesitate to say !

Thanks for your help !

Dear Maxence,
two quick things:

-1- 512M for the permsize is too much; 256m is more than enough but also 128m should suffice
-2- share the log for geoserver, there is nothing we can do unless we know more about what is going on

Hi,

I work on Debian Jessie with JAVA7, Tomcat 8, Geoserver 2.8 and Iceweasel as web browser.

To improve Tomcat and geoserver use I created a setenv.sh file with export CATALINA_OPTS=“$CATALINA_OPTS -server -Xms2G -Xmx2G -XX:PermSize=512m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m”

Is it good ? CATALINA seems to be just for the loading of tomcat, so does it make sense to increase the PermSize in Catalina in order to optimize Geoserver ? Where to that then ?

I need also to add JAVA_OPTS=“-Djava.awt.headless=true” but I don’t know where (somebody told me to set it in /etc/default/tomcat but it doesn’t exist for me… where am I supposed to set this java option ?)
