BLAST Ring Image Generator (BRIG) error

Question

[casley_queiroz]

Hello everyone. I'm trying to compare mitochondria genomes by means of blastn using the BLAST Ring Image Generator (BRIG), but an error occurs and does not generate the image.

Could someone help me?

This is the error:

Rendering CGVIEW image...

java -Xmx1500m  -jar cgview\cgview.jar -f jpg  -i C:\Users\LGMF\Documents\Casley\scratch\Colletotrichum_lindemuthianum_i89.fa.xml -o C:\Users\LGMF\Documents\Casley\Colletotrichum_lindemuthianum_i89.fa.jpg

Error occurred during initialization of VM

Could not reserve enough space for 1536000KB object heap

thank you all.

I followed the recommendations. I changed the java version from 34 bits to 64 bits. Resolved!

The error message is clear. "Could not reserve enough space for 1536000KB object heap"

You requested a 1500MB memory space, and it couldn't do that. This is a java / sysadmin question unrelated to the BRIG software.

Probably your computer doesn't have enough memory for that. Try removing the -Xmx parameter.
