Could not reserve enough space for object heap. Error starting SOA server after installing in Local


I installed SOA server domain . When i tried starting the server i encountered the following error.


Error occurred during initialization of VM
Could not reserve enough space for object heap
Could not create the Java virtual machine.


I went ahead and changed the

this value set DEFAULT_MEM_ARGS=-Xms512m -Xmx1024m

to

set DEFAULT_MEM_ARGS=-Xms512m -Xmx700m

This mean we are reduced the memory allocation from 1024MB to 700MB.

After this setting my server is able to start again.

Journey to become SOA certified Professional



I have decided to become a SOA certified professional in next one month. That mean to be exact i will be SOA certified by 9th March 2015.


This is pretty challenging with the fact that i have no background of SOA and i will start working on it from today only.


So i will post everything whatever i will be doing in next one month:-


1. First i have to install SOA in my local. So i started the search using  "install oracle soa suite 11g on windows 7 64 bit". I got quite a number. I  am choosing quite a few and i will work along their lines.

Driver is probably stuck stopping/starting. Try 'sc.exe query vboxdrv' to get more information about its state. Rebooting may actually help


I installed the Webcenter 11.8 image on the Oracle VM VirtualBox. I encountered the following error "Driver is probably stuck stopping/startingTry 'sc.exe query vboxdrv' to get more information about its state. Rebooting may actually help" when i tried starting it.





Similar issue were faced by used in past but all reffered to update a particular Microsoft security patch update KB3004394. But this update was not present in my system. So it seems there were some issues with starting of the VMware services in my local. I unistalled and reinsalled the Oracle VM VirtualBox. It fixed my problem.

If someone problem is not fixed even after uninsatlling and reinsatlling the  Oracle VM VirtualBox then you may refer to below links for help.
