suubi7 · February 9, 2021, 9:34am

herbert24 · February 9, 2021, 9:43am

you are using a wrong command,its openmrs not openrs

suubi7 · February 9, 2021, 9:43am

ohhh got you

The cause is what you see on the second line of your log Invalid maximum heap size: .... Change the xmx parameter value to something like 512 or lower.

HOW I FIXED THE ERROR

Go to Edit the system Environment variables for Windows 10 search for it in the task bar search engine
When the window opens select environment variables
In the **User variables section ** select New
For variable name insert MAVEN_OPTS then for then for Variable Value insert -Xmx1024m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m for windows
Then rerun this command in command prompt cd basicexample

mvn clean install openmrs-sdk:run -DserverId=your_server_id

The error should go away now
