Constant java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: PermGen space Arquillian + Wildfly 8.1

Question

Hi started a new project. One of the first things i wanted to do was get Arquillian set up and rolling. I have a couple controllers and JSF forms written.

The process of loading up the dependencies

final File[] files = Maven.resolver().loadPomFromFile("pom.xml").importRuntimeAndTestDependencies().resolve()
                .withTransitivity().asFile();
LOG.info(files.toString());
final WebArchive archive = ShrinkWrap.create(WebArchive.class, "main-webapp-arq.war"); etc...

run

mvn -PprofileName package

everything seems to go swimmingly, i see it starting to launch wildfly, then i see it deploy the app, the startup beans fire then i get:

....

followed by other services failing on load for the same reason.

I've gone and done the obvious like up'ing the permgen in maven and wildfly to 512mb then to 1024mb. It seems something is fundamentally wrong. I can run the entire application without adjusting anything.

Arquillian.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

Relevant (i think) pom dependencies:

                <scope>test</scope>
            </dependency>
        </dependencies>

past experience indicates i'm missing something fundamental, and that permgen running out is a sympton of something else i'm doing wrong. I have tried various .import.... in the Maven resolver to no avail. Same problem command line and in eclipse.

java version "1.7.0_60" Apache Maven 3.2.1 wildfly 8.1 OS X Latest

Question: Any idea where to go next? Thanks in advance.

Just hit the same problem. If I get anywhere I'll let you know. — rtcarlson, Jun 26 '15 at 20:02

if you are using linux then you can use .bashrc profile put this command.

export MAVEN_OPTS="-Xmx1024m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m" then reset the terminal.

Or you can set this in environment variable.

Alternatively you can set these values in Maven Command line arguments by using this command

-DXmx512m -DXX:MaxPermSize=512m

Thanks, i can change the values and I'm aware of them, it doesn't seem to matter though. I can run the entire application inside wildfly with 1/4 of the memory without a problem. – Pompey Magnus Nov 15 '14 at 11:48
