Whenever I try to install a new laravel project, I receive the following error:



PHP Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'ErrorException' with message 'proc_open(): fork failed - Cannot allocate memory' in phar:///usr/local/bin/composer/vendor/symfony/console/Symfony/Component/Console/Application.php:990


Does anyone have any idea why this error may be occurring, I'm running the server on nginx.



If any other details may be required, list them as a comment and i'll happily edit + update the post, thank you.

  • Are you running this on a small, low-memory server of some sort? I've had issues with large Composer checkouts on AWS's t1.micro instances.

  • @ceejayoz I'm running it on the $5 package by digitalocean.com, I've successfully installed projects with the exact same server a few months ago, so as far as I'm aware I don't think that is the issue.

    Depends on the size of the projects and how much RAM is in use for other things. The $5 servers are probably uncomfortably close to the limit. I'd do the composer install locally, then SCP the files up, as the initial Laravel checkout pulls a lot of stuff.
