Your droplet doesn’t have enough memory for ghost to update - add some swap:

Thanks! Can I run those commands from the base directory? As in, not specifically the ghost directory or does it have to be somewhere specific?

Yep, you’re not making changes to your installation, rather your system

Brilliant, thanks! Will give it a shot.

That has sorted it :boom:

One thing though, I make a typo on the first line. Is there anything I need to worry about or do I need to do something to fix that? I missed the ‘a’ in swap.
