Sorry, I'm new to Node, and the official site had a bad connection in my country, so I need to install StackEdit locally... Thanks,

P.S. Someone said it's caused by the memory limit of the machine :(
Is that true? My server has 1G RAM, is it enough? 😢

[benweet]

That’s right, this is provoked by linux’s oom killer. Try to increase the ram or the swap.

[thinsoldier]

How much should it be increased to if 1GB is not enough?

[mashirozx]

@thinsoldier I tried a 4 GB machine, still not enough :-/

@mashirozx I encountered the error while running the new vue-ui which uses some kind of server to serve its gui and then webpack dev server to serve my project.

At 512 megs the dev server failed to start, even with the vue-ui gui turned off.

With yarn instead of npm at 512 megs both servers started but if I navigated within the vue-ui gui site the dev server would crash.

At 1GB I would see errors mentioning memory in the terminal of the dev server but it wouldn't crash.

It seems that 2gb is enough for me but I think the switch from npm to yarn might have something to do with it.

Thanks guys, i needed to increase the swap size!

I got this when compiling an Angular 5 app, just changed the memory on my Docker settings to 2GB and that did the trick.

我虚拟机给了8G内存 还是会报错 请问有解决方案嘛

I got this when compiling an Angular 5 app, just changed the memory on my Docker settings to 2GB and that did the trick.

Had a similar issue on Mac while running a unit testing job for an Angular 4 app (with karma as test framework), i had to increase the space allocation for a VirtualBox (one of the tools through which docker is orchestrated on a mac) instance from 1024MB storage limit to 2048MB. I followed the way described in https://stackoverflow.com/a/36982696/4997994.

check your ram if it's used by other things
htop or another tool and kill unused processes
