Out of memory error
After creating lot of threads. Application crashing here are the sample logs
java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: unable to create new native thread
at java.lang.Thread.start0(Native Method)
at java.lang.Thread.start(Unknown Source)
at OpenSpanJavaBroker.Invoke(OpenSpanJavaBroker.java:1771)
where can we find the root cause for this? How can we resolve it?

Geentajali,
Operating system's thread got exhausted.
Run ulimit -a on OS where this issue occurred, increase the max user process & threads to higher number , reboot machine

Hi Arvind,
Thanks for your reply. I tried to run the ulimit-a in user machine. It showing an error message windows cannot find "ulimit-a" make sure you type the name correctly. May I request for some more information regarding this.
Thanks,

Its should be done in machine where Application server is hosted.
Not in the machine of User using application.
I suggest you involve System administrators who take care of machine hosting Application server

What is the JVM argument and how much RAM does the server have? I believe the system does not have enough memory for background processing.
