Due to low running memory - Intelliji is consistently throwing a pop up error

"low disk space error in intelliJ IDE."(repeatedly)

Version - IntelliJ Idea Community version 14

Tried few suggestions from the official site https://www.jetbrains.com/idea/help/tuning-intellij-idea.html

None of the size increasing techniques solved this particular error. (Note - There are 100+ GB of free space the intelliji installed partition.)

Also tried a solution suggested in a forum - to add parameter -Didea.no.system.path.space.monitoring=true in /bin/idea.vmoptions file(located inside < intelliJ installed directory >) and restarted intelliJ,

But issue still persists. Any suggestions is most welcomed.

    It is entirely clear what is being asked here. I am not sure why this question was closed. – sf_jeff Jun 21 '17 at 19:28
  • (After return was interpreted as comment done and "comments can only be edited for 5 minutes" issue, just completing in a separate comment) From the "How to ask" page: Search, and research -> Done Write a title that summarizes the specific problem -> Done Introduce the problem before you post any code -> Done Help others reproduce the problem -> Not relevant Include all relevant tags -> Done Proof-read before posting! -> Apparently done? Post the question and respond to feedback -> Not relevant Look for help asking for help -> Doesn't seem relevant at first glance. – sf_jeff Jun 21 '17 at 19:41

Its resolved after adding this parameter - idea.no.system.path.space.monitoring=true in /bin/idea.properties file.

  • I suspect this relates to: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8055062 I saw this on server 2012 matching the jdk bug environment. – sf_jeff Jun 21 '17 at 19:48
