Workbench Low Memory Issue

You may see this message or a similar Low Memory message while working in Workbench.

Here are some steps to try to alleviate this message.

Elimate your process recordings.
Keep fewer applications open in Workbench.

AEM Forms Workbench is 32-bit application because it uses the 32-bit Flash runtime. Therefore, the maximum heap that can be allocated is 2 GB. Follow these steps to increase the heap memory allocated to Workbench.

1. Close Workbench if it open.

2. Go to the Workbench directory.

C:\Program Files (x86)\AEM Workbench 6.3\workbench

3. Open workbench.ini.

4. Increase the –Xmx value to a number between 900m – 1200m. You cannot increase it beyond 1200m because it will crash on startup.

-Xmx1024m

5. Launch Workbench.

Unable to Remove Workbench

Sometimes Designer or Workbench do not uninstall properly. You may see “Error 1722 There is a problem with this Windows Installer package”. The Error 1722 may include a reference to the FileSystemBrowserDLLunregister (see illustration).

When this is the case, download Microsoft’s Program Install and Uninstall troubleshooter. Google "microsoftprogram_install_and_uninstall" and you will see the current link. Click Download troubleshooter (see illustration).

Follow the Wizard and select "Workbench" in the program list.
