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

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.

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".
