So in the command prompt i tried "java -jar cq-author-4502.jar"   but i got the below response but ther server is not starting though, let me know how to resolve this

Can you post the contents of both stdout.log and stderr.log please?

Hi Sriram,

You can also specify the values during run time only.

For ex: C:\adobe\CQ5\author>java -jar cq-author-4502.jar -Xmx1024m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m

And check if it is running fine.

Hi @Deleted Account the above fix is not working do you have any alternative fix?

I was also facing issue like this,
Solutions 1:
 .Restart Your Laptop and run the command again (its working for me)

Solution 2:
  Delete the "crx-quickstart" folder then restart your laptop and run the command

Note: in image you can check the highlighted command that i used you can change this according to your aem instance name and "Deleting (crx-quickstart) may  casue some data lost".

Have tried both, deleting the crx-quickstart folder and restarting the laptop, still getting the same issue.
