DocumentationJava Profiler Knowledge BaseTroubleshooting: working with the profilerI've got message 'Not enough disk space for temporary files'

Can't find your answer? Please refer to documentation and demos, ask your question in forum, or contact support.

When the profiler opens a memory snapshot, it creates temporary files in the user's default temporary directory.

If there is not enough disk space in the default directory, you can specify alternate directory with the help of -Dyjp.alternate.temp.dir=<directory> property in:

• Since version 9.0: <Profiler Installation Directory>/bin/yjp.ini
• In version 8.0.x:
  • Windows: <Profiler Installation Directory>\bin\win32\yjp.ini
  • Mac OS X: <Profiler Installation Directory>/Contents/Info.plist
  • other platforms: <Profiler Installation Directory>/bin/yjp.sh

Restart the profiler UI after that.

Note: this is only applicable when the profiler runs as a 32-bit application; the profiler does not use the temporary files when it runs as a 64-bit application.
