Why am I getting a memory exhausted error during composer install?
Answer: Composer may require more memory for Taskify's dependencies. Run the following command to increase memory limit or adjust your php.ini settings.
Quick Fix:
Run composer with unlimited memory:
php -d memory_limit=-1 /usr/local/bin/composer installOr if composer is in your PATH:
php -d memory_limit=-1 composer installPermanent Solution:
Increase PHP memory limit in your php.ini file:
- Find your php.ini file:
php --ini - Edit the file and change:
ormemory_limit = 512Mmemory_limit = 1G - Restart your web server
Alternative Solutions:
- Use swap file: Create additional swap space on your server
- Install dependencies separately: Install packages one by one
- Use --no-dev flag: Skip development dependencies initially
Recommended Memory Settings:
- Development: 512M - 1G
- Production: 256M - 512M
- Composer operations: 1G - 2G
