[SHARING] Dev Studio "Upload Data File" yields http 500 error on some files
Dev Studio seems to be having a hard time reading an Excel spreadsheet I'd like to upload - it is 9.5 Mbs in size. I get an HTTP 500 error and this in the Apache Tomcat log:

2009-08-31 14:17:41 StandardWrapperValve[IBIController]: Servlet.service() for servlet IBIController threw exception
java.lang.OutOfMemoryError


Is there a configuration change I can make to allow a file of this size? Or is there any documentation on the limitations of this tool? There's nothing in the doc "Upload Data File Considerations".

Thanks,

OutOfMemoryError

That error typically means your application server is running out of Java Heap space.

I pulled the following up on a Techsupport search which shows how to increase the Java Heap size.

I was told to change memory settings in Apache Tomcat. This allowed Dev Studio Upload Data File to open the file. Now I get a JavaScript error and the window is not rendered completely.
