Error in generating report in Linux (Ubuntu 16.04) VPS

jacob-san

Iam using Linux VPS(ubuntu 16.04), with NodeJS server which is using jsreport and phantom PDF recipe for dynamic PDF generation.
Please find the versions of packages that I have installed for this

"jsreport": "^2.5.0",
"jsreport-phantom-pdf": "^2.3.0"

But on rendering, this is failing with below error.

Please Note :- This is working fine in my Local Windows Server.

Does it fail only for particular templates or even for "Hello world" pdf?

Please try to install the required phantomjs deps mentioned in the docs https://jsreport.net/learn/ubuntu

sudo apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends gnupg git curl wget ca-certificates
sudo apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends xfonts-base xfonts-75dpi

Thanks @jan_blaha for the quick response. Resolved the issue. The error was due to insufficient memory on the VPS.
