Changes

The following scripts, which are referenced in the BaseX can be [[Startup|started in different ways]] and [. The [Command-Line Options]] articles, are also included in the [httphttps://basex.org/products/download/ Windows and ZIP distributions]include various start scripts, which are presented in the following, and which can also be maintained separately.

* We recommend you to manually add the {{Code|bin}} directory of your BaseX directory instance to the [httphttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PATH_(variable) PATH variable] of your environment.* The If you use the Windows installer , that’s done automatically adds .* You can copy the start scripts to another location in your file system. After that, you should edit the scripts and assign the BaseX directory to the project’s {{Code|binMAIN}} directory to your path environmentvariable.* If you work are compiling the source code with [[Maven]], you can directly run launch BaseX via the scripts from in the {{Code|etc}} directory of our GitHub [https://github.com/BaseXdb/basex/tree/master/basex-core/etc basex-core/etc] and [https://github.com/BaseXdb/basex-api/tree/master/basex-api/etc basex-api/etc] repositoriessubdirectories of the project.<br/><br/>

If BaseX terminates with an {{Code|Out of Memory}} or {{Code|Java heap space}} error, you can assign more RAM via the {{Code|-Xmx}} flag (see below). A conservative value was chosen in our distributions to ensure that BaseX will also run on older JVMs.
