    I'm posting here because after hours and hours of research, I still haven't gotten anywhere. It would be a shame if I didn't figure this out and I'm really hoping someone that's familiar with how cPanel is setting up the RoR apps can shed some light on this. With a RoR app deployed, when image manipulation is being done using rmagick, we get -

    libgomp: Thread creation failed: Cannot allocate memory

    I'm assuming somehow CPanel is limiting the amount of memory the app can take up. Anyone has any clues?

    Do you have Shell Fork Bomb protection (in WHM -> Security -> Security Center) enabled?

    Nope thats the first thing I checked actually had issues with that.

    Something I noticed is that as root, it doesn't happen so its definitely a memory restriction on a regular user.

    I know the compilers tweak can adversely affect RoR apps as well. Try disabling that and see if this issue persists.

    David,

    Thanks for taking another crack at it. Compilers are not enabled on our servers either.

    EDIT: I meant, compilers tweak. The compilers are available for all users.

    I recommend letting our technical analysts take a look at things. They will be able to login to your server and determine the cause of this issue so it can be resolved: http://tickets.cpanel.net/submit

    This is an old thread, but did this issue get resolved? We've got *exactly* the same issue.

    I wish I had it documented but I'm running a pretty big blank on how this was resolved. We did however experience it when trying to use lovdbyless -

    Outlines some changes that were made to RMagick. I would look at that as I believe this was coming up when uploading an image and when RMagick was being called. So it had something to do with the Rmagick/Imagemagick installation.

    Awesome, thanks for the reply. That will give us something to adjust until we can figure out what's going on with Imagemagick.
