Getting java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space while running twitter connector using flume

问题

I am starting the agent using this command

bin/flume-ng agent --conf ./conf/ -f conf/twitter.conf Dflume.root.logger=DEBUG,console -n TwitterAgent

My error messages are

My property file of twitter.conf given below

# Naming the components on the current agent.
TwitterAgent.sources = Twitter
TwitterAgent.channels = MemChannel
TwitterAgent.sinks = HDFS

# Describing/Configuring the source
TwitterAgent.sources.Twitter.type = org.apache.flume.source.twitter.TwitterSource
TwitterAgent.sources.Twitter.consumerKey = xxx
TwitterAgent.sources.Twitter.consumerSecret = xxx

TwitterAgent.sources.Twitter.accessTokenSecret = xxx

TwitterAgent.channels.MemChannel.transactionCapacity = 1000

# Binding the source and sink to the channel
TwitterAgent.sources.Twitter.channels = MemChannel
TwitterAgent.sinks.HDFS.channel = MemChannel

My flume-env.sh file

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-oracle/bin/java

# Give Flume more memory and pre-allocate, enable remote monitoring via JMX
export JAVA_OPTS="-Xms100m -Xmx2000m -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote"


# Let Flume write raw event data and configuration information to its log files for debugging
# purposes. Enabling these flags is not recommended in production,
# as it may result in logging sensitive user information or encryption secrets.
# export JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Dorg.apache.flume.log.rawdata=true -Dorg.apache.flume.log.printconfig=true "

# Note that the Flume conf directory is always included in the classpath.
#FLUME_CLASSPATH=""

# export HIVE_HOME=/usr/lib/hive
# export HCAT_HOME=/usr/lib/hive-hcatalog

i have update export JAVA_OPTS="-Xms100m -Xmx2000m -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote" in flume-env.sh file, but still getting java heap memory issue. What should i do to resolve this issue further.

回答1:

Comment out this line in your flume-env.sh file

export JAVA_OPTS="-Xms100m -Xmx2000m -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote"

Then start the agent

I solved this issue increasing the heap size, by adding this line in twitter.conf file

TwitterAgent.channels.MemChannel.byteCapacity = 6912212

Then increased the heap size in flume-env.sh file

export JAVA_OPTS="-Xms512m -Xmx1024m -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote"
