I’m currently trying to install ghost on a freshly created Oralce VPS (using an ARM instance). When I run everything accordingly to the instructions provided at How to install & setup Ghost on Ubuntu 16.04, 18.04, 20.04 or 22.04, I get the following error:
yarn install v1.22.15

Unfortunately I have no experience with npm or yarn so it’s difficult for me to pinpoint what the problem is. About four weeks ago I’ve tried to install ghost for the first time and everything worked perfectly fine. Now I wanted to launch the real deal after getting familiar with it, I can’t manage to replicate the installation. I’ve found another thread in the forums that suggest that changing the amount of RAM to > 1 GB does something but I’m on 12 GB RAM on my VPS so I don’t think it’s the real reason why things worked out for the other person.
If you need information that I can provide, please let me know. I’ve taken a look at the log file that’s being returned by the installation process but couldn’t make any sense of the hundreds of lines it contains.
