Hi Mahesh,

You can probably try this:

 java -Xms4096m -Xmx4096m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m -Djava.awt.headless=true -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=1089 -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false -jar cq-author-p4502.jar -nofork

 

This worked for me.

I am setting maximum and minimum memory allotted to CQ Author instance to be 4GB, which you can modify as per your needs.

One issue may be your machine's Heap space is not adequate:

WARNING: insufficent heap memory

Please keep your questions on same subject in the same thread.

This part of the log file suggests that you have a memory issue:

The JVM reports 247 MB but we recommend at least 768 MB +/- 20
Use your JVM's heap size option (like -Xmx768M) to set that size.

From the http://dev.day.com/docs/en/cq/current/getting_started/download_and_startworking.html
If using the command line, for a 32bit VM type:
java -Xmx1024M -jar cq5-author-p4502.jar

java -Xmx1024M -jar cq5-author-p4502.jar
Error: Unable to access jarfile cq5-author-p4502.jar

when i execute this command it is creating crx-quickstart directory , there are only 3 folders created "app,conf and logs".

Have a look at this blogpost regarding doing an installation from the command-line:

http://experiencedelivers.adobe.com/cemblog/en/experiencedelivers/2012/04/installing-cq5-from-comman...

My first guess is that it is either too low mem or disk.
