i used ghost template from digital ocean. the moment you login it starts installing ghost and at the end this error comes up.

note: it did ask for blog url and ssl email i have provided during the installation

I had a similar problem. It turned out that it wouldn’t install on a 1GB RAM droplet. I upgraded to 2GB and it installed flawlessly.
