  ** It is also '''VERY HELPFUL''' to test and see if you get the same error outside of anthill. So, if you have a failed job step (such as a changelog or info step), try logging onto the agent box using the same account the agent is running as. Then try the step outside of anthill to see if the same error occurs. For example: <pre>Subversion command line: svn info --username anthillpro --password ***** --revision {2013-02-20 19:26:26 +0000} https://svn-repo/root    ** It is also '''VERY HELPFUL''' to test and see if you get the same error outside of anthill.

- Before you even consider restarting the server, you will most likely want to do a quick scan of the '''ah3server.out''' logs for any sort of memory errors, specifically ''OutOfMemory'' errors. If you see an ''OutOfMemory'' error, we will also want a heap dump. You can get more information on how to do this by visiting the [[Dumps from a Java Process]] page.   + Before you even consider restarting the server, you will most likely want to do a quick scan of the '''%SERVER_HOME%\var\log\ah3server.out''' logs for any sort of memory errors, specifically ''OutOfMemory'' errors.
