[opencms-dev] tomcat error: FAIL - Application at context path /opencms could not be started

[Tobias Herrmann]

Hi David,

this might be a memory issue. I am not familiar with Webfaction but looking at their website it states a default app memory of 512 MB, which may be to little to run OpenCms reliably.

That's is something I would check out with a local install first, where fiddling with Tomcat memory settings is easier.

Regards,

Tobias
