Failed to create the Java VM Reason: not enough memory.

Failed to create the Java VM Reason: not enough memory.

Hello Jovyhasle, I’ll be more than happy to assist you, but for future reference please include your Jalbum program version, java version, as well as your operating system, I have used Jalbum before never really had the problem that you're experiencing however one of my first suggestions would be to try and get the most recent version it you don’t already have it you can download it here http://jalbum.net/download/jAlbum-install.exe 

Outside of that have you try launching the program by using the jalbum.jar instead of the jalbum.exe file often times you are advised to use the .exe  for java programs simply because the .jar file might not have all the necessary instructions to execute the program properly however sometimes its the only way a java based program to work.

As a last resort you could try editing the Jalbum.ini file open your jablum.ini file and where the default memory allocation is set to  "Xmx512"  change it to "Xmx256" It might seem strange to be reducing the memory allocation, but the problem you're having is not necessarily memory related its more or less just a semantic problem. Most likely you won’t have to resort to this but in any case

Hope this helps

EDIT

Just a quick edit was doing a bit of searching and found  batch file that might also be of use.

save the following information to a batch file in the jalbum program folder, the batch file is actually doing two things its launching the .jar as well as setting the memory allocated for the program

REM  Use this start script if double-clicking on JAlbum.jar
REM  does not work
