      @scottalanmiller Apart from the fact that this is a new piece of software, would you be able to help me to get this virtual memory issue fixed please?

            free -m output
            free -m
            total used free shared buffers cached
            Mem: 12288 10790 1497 0 1773 6903
            -/+ buffers/cache: 2113 10174
            Swap: 10207 0 10207

            Server is CentOS release 5.11.

            Seems like the issue is the user account doesnt have enough memory allocation allowed.
            ulimit -a
            core file size (blocks, -c) 200000
            data seg size (kbytes, -d) 200000

            open files (-n) 100
            pipe size (512 bytes, -p) 8

            real-time priority (-r) 0
            stack size (kbytes, -s) 8192
            cpu time (seconds, -t) unlimited
            max user processes (-u) 35
            virtual memory (kbytes, -v) unlimited
            file locks (-x) unlimited

            I am trying to find an option to increase this just for this user in cpanel. Also found that the Shell fork bomb protection could also be the reason for this issue. Still working on it

                Wow, that was a very good read, and got some good info! Thanks a lot!

                In my case, it was cPanel's Shell fork bomb protection, I disabled it for a while and was able to complete the installation and later on enabled it back again.

                But thanks once again for that writeup on your blog 🙂

                    Yes that was sorted, now need to see how the dev team integrates sphinx search on the site.
