Forking JVM: error=12, Cannot allocate memory or error=12, Not enough space
症状
error=12, Cannot allocate memory (Linux)
com.atlassian.bitbucket.exception.ServerException: An error occurred while executing an external process: java.io.IOException: error=12, Cannot allocate memoryerror=12,Not enough space (Solaris)
com.atlassian.bitbucket.exception.ServerException: An error occurred while executing an external process: error=12, Not enough space原因
If you received error=12, Cannot allocate memory or error=12, Not enough space, this means your system ran out of memory or swap space when Java tried to fork a process.
The problem is inherent with the way Java allocates memory when executing processes. When Java executes a process, it must fork() then exec(). Forking creates a child process by duplicating the current process. By duplicating the current process, the new child process will request approximately the same amount of memory as its parent process, essentially doubling the memory required. However, this does not mean all the memory allocated will be used, as exec() is immediately called to execute the different code within the child process, freeing up this memory. As an example, when Bitbucket Server tries to locate git, the Bitbucket Server JVM process must be forked, approximately doubling the memory required by Bitbucket Server.
Note that this issue is made worse by hosting multiple webapps in the same Tomcat container as Bitbucket Server (which is not supported), because more memory is used by the Java process.
Please see Forking JVM for a more detailed explanation.
ソリューション
If you are hosting multiple products in the same Tomcat container as Bitbucket Server, move Bitbucket Server to its own Tomcat container.
For Linux, this can be resolved by enabling over-committing memory.
For Solaris, we recommend increasing your swap space. How much swap space do you need? This will also depend on the other applications running on the same machine. We recommend allocating at least swap equal to 4 x JVM_MAXIMUM_MEMORY, or 2 x PHYSICAL RAM, whichever is larger. The JVM_MAXIMUM_MEMORY is set in your <Bitbucket Server installation directory>/bin/setenv.sh. You can increase your swap space if you are still running out of memory.
Bitbucket Server 5.0+ では setenv と環境変数に変更があります
Bitbucket Server 5.0 以降では setenv.sh と setenv.bat が取り除かれています。これらのファイルで設定されていたオプションは、環境変数で設定できるようになりました。環境変数の設定場所は、実行先のオペレーティング システムに応じます。
Linux
When using the atlbitbucket service on Linux, the environment variables are ignored. You must set the parameters in _start-webapp.sh (or start-bitbucket.sh). These values will be read when the service starts.
たとえば、 JVM_SUPPORT_RECOMMENDED_ARGS を設定するには、ファイルに次の行を追加します。
JVM_SUPPORT_RECOMMENDED_ARGS=-XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryErrorWindows
Bitbucket Server を実行しているユーザーで、パラメーターを環境変数として設定します。たとえば、JVM_SUPPORT_RECOMMENDED_ARGS を設定したい場合、それを環境変数として作成して適切な値を割り当てます。Bitbucket Server がスタートアップ スクリプトやサービスを利用して起動する際に、この値が取得および適用されます。
