Memory exhaused error for docker install

[rkhyd]

When i run docker-compose up -d or docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d, i get the "Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 1610612736 bytes exhausted" in both cases.

I added - COMPOSER_MEMORY_LIMIT=-1 to the environment of php service, added mem_limit: 5g as well. But the install fails.
here is the output

Any solution?

@rkhyd I was facing the same issues, tried few different methods to change the composer memory limit as outlined in https://getcomposer.org/doc/articles/troubleshooting.md#memory-limit-errors but to no avail.

I could get it to work by adding these two lines before the composer install command in the Dockerfile:

ENV COMPOSER_MEMORY_LIMIT=-1
RUN composer self-update --2

Credits: Solution from this stackoverflow post.

UPDATE: The correct solution would most likely be to change the COMPOSER_VERSION argument at the beginning of Dockerfile from

ARG COMPOSER_VERSION=2.4
to
ARG COMPOSER_VERSION=2.7.2

and adding the
ENV COMPOSER_MEMORY_LIMIT=-1

Tested both approaches to be working.

But it appears this docker setup is not maintained as all the versions are quite outdated, e.g. alpine version 3.15 where the latest combination of php 8.1 and alpine is [8.1-fpm-alpine3.19](https://hub.docker.com/layers/library/php/8.1-fpm-alpine3.19/images/sha256-0396ed0b83c93a957834197aca8f34a0d6b8ec75f9f7cd6b337cd4ec3541464b?context=explore)

Would be nice to hear about the plans from Sylius for this.

Hello @dhenze and @rkhyd I re-test the last release of sylius/sylius-standard and the issue is no more here.

You can simply edit the new compose.override.yml file and change the external ports (because for ex, I'm running MySQL database on the 3306 port already and I need to expose it to a another port). Then clean your existing docker compose stack : make clean and finally make init.
During my tests I had only one error about missing git binary missing because composer wants to download a package via it, but retrying the make init fix the issue.

@Prometee this is not true in my case, just tried the latest release of sylius-standard and I still had to turn off the memory limit because it would crash on cache:clear command due to exhausted memory.

[Prometee]

@patbsh are you sure your fork the last version ?
Can you describe how you changed the memory limit with the new config ?

[patbsh]

@Prometee I used composer-create project so to my understanding it used the latest version?

When it crashed due to memory limit I simply went into the newly created directory and re-run composer install with COMPOSER_MEMORY_LIMIT=-1 composer install and this time it went without issues. It could probably also be achieved by adding the same to the Dockerfile directly.

[Prometee]

@patbsh it seems you are using your local PHP binary instead of the docker one doing so.
You do not need to composer create-project sylius/sylius-standard, please follow the dedicated documentation page to install Sylius instead : https://docs.sylius.com/en/1.13/book/installation/installation_with_docker.html

Usually the memory issue is coming from XDebug extension being enabled, what I suspect is that your local PHP install has it, making the memory blowing up.

@Prometee you are right, after cloning the repository directly it runs without any tweaking. Thanks!
