Trying to open the XML (CLOB Data) from a table. Getting "out of Memory" error in plsql developer tool. Please help how to open the xml CLOB without error.
We have tried spooling and running the query from command prompt but still not reading the whole page.

And also we dont have access to create a directory to save it in a server as it is prod db

Try closing any other open programs then, if not you probably need more RAM

So then it not a SQL Developer issue.

I imagine the sqlplus issue can be solved with:

set long 50000

or higher.

We tried set long more than 50000, but no use.
And about RAM, we have already 4GB configured. Please suggest. Thanks

And did you try "higher"?
There's no relation between the error and SQL*Plus, it is a pure plsql developer and you should not have it with SQL*Plus.
If you have it (or any other one) then copy and paste your SQL*Plus session.
Before, Please read How to use [code] tags and make your code easier to read.
Also always post your Oracle version, with 4 decimals, for both database and SQL*Plus.
And set SQl*Plus with:

set linesize 100 trimout on trimspool on long 1000000 longchunksize 100

I have no idea how much RAM you would need.
How long is this clob?

SQL*Plus reads the CLOB in chunks not as a whole, it needs no special added memory for this.
