How to add swap for VPS in Linux

I had this problem today when I was installing subversion for my friends.

Internal compiler error:killed (program Cc1plus)

Google later learned that due to insufficient memory, the compilation was interrupted.

A friend's Aliyun host would have little memory, and there was no swap partition.

Find out where the problem is, then we'll fix it.

In order to install software to upgrade the memory method, obviously not very reliable, then we will create a swap partition bar.

1. Create swap file, 2G dd If=/dev/zero of=/mnt/swap bs=1024 count=2048000

2. Generate swap file Mkswap/mnt/swap This step may prompt for failure, plus the-f argument, forcing the build to
3. Swapon/mnt/swap Mount

So free-m see, swap space is not big out of 2G? ;)

Use this method to successfully install Subversion, the specific installation method, to view a key installation subversion

If you need to mount swap automatically at power-on startup

Vi/etc/fstab

Add the following to the end of this file (note wrapping)

/mnt/swap Swap Defaults 0 0
