JAVA invalid maximum heap size. The specified size exceeds the maximum displayed size

Question

I need to run this command to fix the code in the XML file:

java -Xmx5G -cp .:jsoup-1.8.2.jar CheckSyntax test.xml > test2.xml

But it gives me this error:

Invalid maximum heap size: -Xmx5G
The specified size exceeds the maximum representable size.

How can I get it to work?

If your JVM is 32-bit you cannot use the -d64 switch

java -Xmx2G -cp .:jsoup-1.8.2.jar CheckSyntax test.xml > test2.xml
