Re: [Arches] Re: Help with design - server RAM issue?

Hi Adam,

I am working Darryl and I was able to create some new nodes in the DB work only 1G RAM. The issue Darryl was running into was that elasticsearch was not restarting when the server got rebooted.

Seems, at least with Ubuntu 18, simply putting the command to start elasticsearch in rc.local does not work. elasticsearch says it refuses to run with root credentials. Making the elasticsearch script SUID some other non-privileged user doesn't help.

Hi Nina and Darryl,

Thanks for pointing out the broken link in the documentation. I'll put in a note to fix it.

At the bottom of this section https://arches.readthedocs.io/en/stable/arches-and-elasticsearch/#running-elasticsearch, you'll see the notes that the link originally linked to, which mention how you can direct elasticsearch to use just 1gb memory on startup. Really, I haven't done a LOT of testing with this configuration, so I'm unsure how well it will work. But when I tested in the past it was sufficient for viewing the front-end, etc. but I would expect that search/import-related operations will be compromised.

Let me know how it goes! If things still don't work, I would personally be inclined to remove that note from the documentation.

Adam

Hi all,
Hoping I can get some assistance. Arches was installed for me by a developer on Ubuntu on a VPS with 1GB of RAM. When trying to begin design by creating my first Class, I hit save and get the spinning wheel of death. Per the installation documentation, it is possible to install and then design using only 1GB RAM as long as following Note 1 (https://arches.readthedocs.io/en/stable/requirements-and-dependencies/arches-and-elasticsearch.html#notes). Unfortunately, this link is dead so I cannot check if I have everything set correctly.

I'm no IT expert so any advice would be gratefully received.

Thanks,
Darryl
