Stage 2 unable to complete due to memory restrictions. Please increase the memor

That particular error only happens if your server has less than 2MB of memory remaining. Note, the total server memory is not relevant here, as PHP has it’s own memory limit, which could be WAY lower. See what happens if you increase the PHP memory_limit setting.

I have 2G as my memory limit. It works fine if I downgrade to php 7.2 with the same limits.

That’s very strange… Don’t suppose there are any errors in the logs?

Debug log in eww is blank, here’s the page https://prnt.sc/uv0px5

I think your PHP 7.4 config is broken. In other words, even though you might have set it to 2GB somewhere, that is NOT taking effect in PHP 7.4. EWWW IO can run with very minimal memory if it has to, but when you have less than 2MB available, something is not working the way you think it is.

Go to Tools->Site Health->Info->Server and it will tell you the effective memory limit.

Thanks for the quick reply!

Here’s what I see there: https://prnt.sc/uv16xf

Ah, try changing your config to ‘2G’ instead of ‘2g’ and see what happens. Looks like our check is case-sensitive (something I’ll remedy in a future release).

That did it! Thank you!
