 |
|
Since updating my profile to default/linux/x86/13.0, I've had nothing but problems with emerge/python and doing upgrades. Sometimes emerge works, and other (read:most) times it exits with the below error.
| Code: | # emerge -pv --update --deep world
... done!
Traceback (most recent call last):

tb_str = traceback.format_exc()

Getting emerge/portage working properly again seems to be the best way to start. The error output does sometimes differ, but in all cases includes some variation on Error 12 Cannot allocate memory: '/proc/24517/fd' (the number after /proc is a PID, correct?). This is a "low memory VPS", 256M of mem with 512M burstable and there is ample disk space to run various operations.
I've tried a few things so far:
* Simple reboot (http://forum.dee.su/topic/oserror-errno-12-cannot-allocate-memory)
* rebuilt python and ran python-updater, updated 4 pkgs, no change
* https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-563178-highlight-memoryerror.html
* set python to 2.6, 3.1, 3.2 (from 2.7); no change
* noticed that gcc-config was not set to latest, ran gcc-config 4; fix_libtool_files.sh $(gcc-config -c) to set things right, didnt seem to impact
* adjusted a few compiler related things in make.conf, no change
* re-linked /etc/make.profile to 10.O/server, emerged portage but still getting MemoryError
I'm also running out of memory trying to compile larger packages like dev-lang/php. The only package, up until now, that I have had problems compiling was gcc and glibc. In those cases, I would emerge a binpkg.
My secondary problem is that since updating from profile 10.0/server to profile 13.0 (default), portage is forcing me to install all sorts of X11/Xorg related packages. I would provide a list, but the above MemoryError is preventing me from outputting a proper list. :-\
I'm currently running with my profile linked to the old 10.0/server.

| Running a tiny memory VPS with no swap sounds like a recipe for problems. I assume you do not want to add memory to the machine, so I suggest you enable swap. |

My host, for whatever reason, does not enable swap for the VM's. I actually did try adding a swap file (it was worth a try) this afternoon, but the system will not allow it. Since they seem to be incredibly slow at answering tickets, I'm actually considering moving my server over to another VM provider that does set swap up.
Its incredibly frustrating. |

| I think you will continue to experience frustration trying to operate modern Gentoo on that machine if you cannot add either RAM or swap. |

Yep. I'm tired of it. I did a world build on a new provider overnight last night. |
