[CMA-23] Uploading large files throws OutOfMemoryError for the Java heap space

Duplicate — Fri, 15 Oct 2010 10:50:37 -0400

My webapp uploads from the browser to the client into a temp file that is located on the Tomcat running my webapp. After that I make the following CMA call using that file (file is the temp file that I created):

myMethod() {
    ...
    CMAUtil.writeContentFromStream(this.cmaServices, this.user.getTicket(), fileRef, ContentModel.TYPE_CONTENT, new FileInputStream(file));
    ...
}

public static void writeContentFromStream(CMAServices cmaServices, Ticket ticket, NodeRef childRef,
    QName nodeTypeQName, InputStream inputStream) throws NodeLockedException, InvalidTicketException, CmaRuntimeException {

    cmaServices.getContentService().writeContentFromStream(ticket, childRef, nodeTypeQName, inputStream);
}

At some point the following exception is thrown.
