"bundle install" consistently killed - installing

Hi,

I'm trying to set up a Diaspora pod on my Linode. I'm only on the 512 plan, which may be relevant.

I got Diaspora set up once and the web interface mostly working but I uninstalled it and am now trying to install it again. I'm following the instructions at:

http://github.com/diaspora/diaspora/wik … g-Diaspora">http://github.com/diaspora/diaspora/wiki/Installing-and-Running-Diaspora

This time, once I followed the Ubuntu 10.04 instructions and got back to the main page and ran the bundle install command I consistently get the message "Killed".

Is this an error I should be able to fix, or does it just mean I don't have enough processing power to run the command and need to switch to a higher plan?

I have a number of other web services (email, StatusNet, MediaWiki, Wordpress) from my Linode, Mail and Wordpress are getting moderate use.

(Posting this in this forum because "bundle install" is a Ruby on Rails instruction (I think), please let me know if this is the wrong place.

Looks like an out of memory (OOM) error to me. Maybe have a look in dmesg and /var/log/messages and see if there are messages about this in there?

If it is an OOM, you might be able to get around it by increasing the size of the swap partition - this is a major performance killer but not an issue for a one off install

Sweet, that worked perfectly, thank you very much!
