Java - OutOfMemoryError: PermGen space

Viewed 29077

I'm currently developing a tool allowing me to get statistics from anyware simply by going on a website I also created.

For those who don't know, Birt is a reporting tool, and an eclipse plugin.

My problem is the following :

I installed tomcat on the server hosting my website, and installed the Birt ReportEngine on it, and on my website, I call the online viewer to get my reports.

The problem is that since yesterday, when I launch a report, I have this error :

javax.servlet.ServletException: L'exécution de la servlet a lancé une exception
    org.eclipse.birt.report.filter.ViewerFilter.doFilter(ViewerFilter.java:68)

Caused by :

java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: PermGen space

I don't really know which config file to modify to avoid this error. I found some examples online that tell to modify the eclipse.ini file, but as for mty website, I don't use eclipse, I didn't found any usefull post.

Can someone help me please ?

Thanks
