Im setting up toran proxy to use with our private packages. Im mostly there and testing.

I have Toran Proxy set up on a basic lamp stack on digital ocean and its is configured correctly (from what i know). But when running composer install (on my local dev set up, OSX default apache etc) its saying the package I am requesting isn't available due to a 500 Internal Server error.

Composer\Downloader\TransportException]
The "https://url.com/repo/packagist/p/lewis/bettercms.json" file could
not be downloaded (HTTP/1.0 500 Internal Server Error)

So I checked the apache logs on the server and the fatal error is due to the memory being exhausted.

I have upped it to 2G in the php.ini and restarted apache but still no luck!

PHP Fatal error:  Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 262144 bytes) in /var/www/toran.lewisecommerce.net/src/Toran/ProxyBundle/Service/Proxy.php on line 470

Does anyone have any experienced with setting Toran up? Have you come across any memory issues?

Ive checked php -i and grepped for memory limit which it seems to have picked up the change so im pretty sure php knows this. And I believe I have changed the correct .ini file according to phpinfo() and of course restarted apache. Still no luck.

here is a screenshot of top when under load: top

Thanks

  • What setting did you change on the `php.ini` ? – Pedro Lobito Apr 25 '16 at 21:37
  • Tha ks for the reply. I have changed memory_limit – Tom Burman Apr 25 '16 at 21:38
  • Are you using a virtual server or shared hosting ? – Pedro Lobito Apr 25 '16 at 21:39
  • It's a virtual server that has 2GB memory on digital ocean – Tom Burman Apr 25 '16 at 21:39
  • You've found your problem. You vps is lacking memory because other service also use memory, run `top` on your shell to check the available memory. – Pedro Lobito Apr 25 '16 at 21:43
  • But why would toran proxy be using so much memory do you think? Seems very high! I'll check top out again in the morning but when I checked earlier when the server was at 1GB it still had about 400M free memory at the Peak of the operation – Tom Burman Apr 25 '16 at 21:45
  • It's difficult for me to tell you what's causing the me4moty issue. Try emailing toran@nelm.io and explain your problem. https://toranproxy.com/support – Pedro Lobito Apr 25 '16 at 21:51
  • `Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted` That looks like a very big number, but in reality only is 128MB. If you think you changed the memory limit, PHP seems to not know about it. – Sven Apr 26 '16 at 01:48
  • Thanks Sven - Ive checked php -i and grepped for memory limit which it seems to have picked up. And I believe I have changed the correct .ini file according to phpinfo() and of course restarted apache. Still no luck – Tom Burman Apr 26 '16 at 07:31
  • The command to identify which INI file is used on the command line is `php -i | grep ini` - this should show you basically any output dealing with ini files and more. – Sven Apr 26 '16 at 20:56

You vps is lacking memory because other service also use memory (mysql, mail, etc.), run top on your shell to check the available memory.

Turns out PHP was using a different .ini file from the one I was changing and believed it to be. Simply changed the PHP value in the correct .ini file.

For Digital ocean this is /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini not the CLI one!
