On some Operating Systems it may be necessary to increase the Java thread stack size from the default. Default values for each Operating System are listed below:

Platform	Default
Windows IA32	64 KB
Linux IA32	128 KB
Windows x86_64	128 KB
Linux x86_64	256 KB
Windows IA64	320 KB
Linux IA64	1024 KB (1 MB)
Solaris Sparc	512 KB

Setting the Java thread stack size to 512k should be sufficient in nearly all cases.
 

 
On Linux, edit the file <tomcat-home>/conf/wrapper.conf. Find the section title 'Java Additional Parameters'. Add the following additional parameter, incrementing the additional parameter number from the last one:
wrapper.java.additional.<n>=-Xss512k


On Windows, use the Tomcat service helper app, go into the Java parameters section, and add the following:
-Xss512k
