The `wrapper.java.additional.Xmx` parameter in the `wrapper.conf` file (located in the Jenkins installation directory) sets the maximum heap size for the Java Virtual Machine (JVM). If the heap size is too small, Jenkins might fail to start. Try increasing this value (e.g., to 2048m or 4096m) and restarting the service. Ensure your system has enough RAM to support the increased heap size.
