Your code is probably bugged and use far more memory necessary. Without any code, it is hard to help.

By the way, there are tools to analyse memory usage. Use them, if you cannot figure out where the problem is.

Solution 2

Out of memory exceptions get thrown when an application runs out of user memory; see Memory Limits for Windows and Windows Server Releases (Windows)[^].

Solution 1

The out of memory exception usually tells you that your software does not get anymore RAM-Capacity, so this is not related to disk space. Check your resource allocations and see if you flood your ram with data. Also try to identify where you can trigger the garbage collection by disposing unnecessary objects.

Thanks for the answer, my server have 8gb ram. i am using string builder to export data from data table to excel. where do i clear the GC.

Well you have to check if you are just creating objects and not dumping any. I would suggest you to review your code and see where you can dispose objects that are not needed anymore. Also check the link Richard gave you, this might also help :)
