installation Killed

Trying to install OroCRM but it fails.

I follow the steps mentioned in README.md on https://github.com/orocrm/crm-application
The procedure stops at the following command: $ php composer.phar install --prefer-dist
Loading composer repositories with package information
Installing dependencies (including require-dev)
Killed
$

I’ve created an alias for “php composer.phar”… I’m lazy$ cat ~/.bash_aliases
alias composer='/usr/bin/php ~/bin/composer.phar'

When I just type “composer” it will call “/usr/bin/php ~/bin/composer.phar”
The output gives me the following info: ______

$ echo $? $ 137

1 2	$ echo $? $ 137

http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/exitcodes.html
Exit code number: 128+n
Meaning: Fatal error signal “n”
Example: kill -9 $PPID of script
Comment: $? returns 137 (128 + 9)

In other words …
or the last command or the next command will end up in a fatal error.

When I execute composer to install orocrm the process stops at provider-mlebkowski$crane.json

well… euh… I don’t have a clue how to solve it.
Can anyone reproduce the issue?

[Alexandr SmagaParticipant]

Hello,

Please provide detailed information about your environment.
Have you tried to install any other package on your system using composer ?
Have you tried to clear composer cache ?

It’s weird because OroCRM doesn’t have any dependency on mlebkowski/crane…

[Hans KuijpersParticipant]

Could you be more specific what kind of information you want from my environment?
PHP 5.4.4 is installed on this Linux server with CGI/FastCGI. Shared Hosting.

Started with a clean environment using the steps mentioned in README.md on https://github.com/orocrm/crm-application

Just cleared composer cache using the following command

$ rm -rf ~/.composer/cache/*

1	$ rm -rf ~/.composer/cache/*

<quote>It’s weird because OroCRM doesn’t have any dependency on mlebkowski/crane…</quote>
Perhaps it’s a dependency of another dependency… after cache cleaning I tried to install it again… and on the same package it fails.

Can you reproduce my issue?

[Alexandr SmagaParticipant]

No I can’t. I have the same provider in composer cache folder, but dependencies installed without errors.

[Hans KuijpersParticipant]

Started from scratch. Same error.

@Hans : The process is probably being killed by the linux kernel’s Out of Memory Killer. If this is what’s happening, you’ll see some messages in /var/log/syslog like this:

PHP has had a reputation in the past of being a memory hog, and I’ve observed composer using quite a bit of memory and being killed when running:

php composer create-project laravel/laravel ~/src/my-project --prefer-dist

1 2 3

php composer create-project laravel/laravel ~/src/my-project --prefer-dist

So simple solution is to increase the memory on your VM (assuming you’re using a VM), or add additional RAM to your box.

[Hans KuijpersParticipant]

Hi James,

Thank you for your reply. Your assumption was correct. Composer dependencies consumed the entire RAM of the Shared Hosting optimised for Magento.
You’re telling that PHP has had a reputation in the past of being a memory hog. Wouldn’t it be better if composer doesn’t need so much memory?

[Dima SorokaKeymaster]

You can use zip or tar packages if there are any issues with composer.
