Hi all,

I had to increase the heap memory on Servoy Server 8.2 running on Mac OS X by editing the wrapper.conf in the service directory.  
It appears you need to reinstall the service by running install\_service.sh for changes to the wrapper to update on the server.

it would be helpful if the documentation mention that you also have to do this on Mac OS X (or on all operating systems).

We had an unnecessary server restart on a live server yesterday because I did not realise this.
