That is an OS error. Subversion is providing you the "Cannot allocate memory" message as a convenience, it's not producing the error. Looking at the code I'd bet that fork() is returning ENOMEM on your system. > Our Linux System Admin had applied different memory cache setting to the > server but thus far we have no luck resolving this error. > > If you could please provide any insights on why and ho we could correct this > issue, I’m truly appreciated your help/ Add more memory to the system or figure out why the kernel doesn't think it has enough memory. Might want to check your configured ulimits as well.
