Hello there, I'm using Odoo V11 with Nginx reverse proxy.

From time to time I get the following error

2018-03-05 12:33:15,504 6967 ERROR ? odoo.service.server: Worker (6967) Exception occured, exiting...
Traceback (most recent call last):

conn = _connect(dsn, connection_factory=connection_factory, **kwasync)
psycopg2.OperationalError: could not fork new process for connection: Cannot allocate memory
could not fork new process for connection: Cannot allocate memory


The server specs I used to implement Odoo are:

1CPU, 1GRAM

In my configuration file, I set workers=3


Anyone know what does this error mean, and how to fix it?

Is something wrong in my configuration?

Hi Youta,

You cannot configure multiple works with just 1GB of RAM (and I believe that 1GB RAM is for both the OS & Odoo?) as it is simply not enough. Please have a look at the official documentation at https://www.odoo.com/documentation/11.0/setup/deploy.html#worker-number-calculation which explains how you should configure it and how to calculate it.

Regards,
Yenthe
