JIRA as a Windows Service defining parameters

[Robert Egan]

I have installed Jira as a windows service. However, it seems determined to use the memore values from service.bat.

I have tried defining Xms and Xmx as system environment variables, and I have also tried adding them as additional arguments in the Service properties dialog.

Nevetheless, they continue to be 384 and 2048.

What am I missing? There are values I need to pass in using -D as well.

Hi @Robert Egan 

You check the options for windows service setting here

Also look in your setenv.bat for 

set JVM_MINIMUM_MEMORY
set JVM_MAXIMUM_MEMORY
