Does anyone have any ideas on why these logs are giving these errors - Out of memory: kill process ... nginx invoked oom-killer?
Lately, our cms has been going down and we have to manually restart the server in AWS and we're not sure what is happening to cause this behavior. log errors
Here are the exact lines of code that repeated 33 times while the server was down:
Out of memory: kill process 15654 (ruby) score 338490 or a child

CodePudding user response:
It's happening because your server is running out of memory. To solve this problem you have 2 options.
Update your Server's Ram or use SWAP (But upgrading Physical ram is recommended instead of using SWAP)
Limit Nginx ram use.
To limit nginx ram use open the /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
file and add client_max_body_size <your_value_here>
under the http
configuration block. For example:
worker_processes 1;
http {
client_max_body_size 10M;
...
}
Note: use M
for MB, G
for GB and T
for TB
