I've installed a new Magento 2 installation with Softaculous on my hostingserver. After installation I would change the default deployment mode to production but I have the following error (using SSH):

foo@en07-phx [~/public_html/m2test/bin]# php magento deploy:mode:show
    Current application mode: default.
foo@en07-phx [~/public_html/m2test/bin]# php magento deploy:mode:set production
    Enabled maintenance mode
    Static content deployment start
    Command returned non-zero exit code:
    `php -f /home/foo/public_html/m2test/bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy en_US 2>&1`

Anyone knows what could be wrong? Because I'm using v2.0.0.0, this might be fixed already in a newer version on Github but I'm not able to install that using softaculous and I have no clue on how to use Composer from my hostingprovider.

Edit1: Following the suggestion of @Silvan (by running the command seperately), I get the following output:

=== frontend -> Magento/blank -> en_US ===
Successful: 1965 files; errors: 0
=== frontend -> Magento/luma -> en_US ===
Successful: 1965 files; errors: 0
=== adminhtml -> Magento/backend -> en_US ===
Successful: 1843 files; errors: 0
=== Minify templates ===
Successful: 845 files modified

Edit2: This is independent of Softaculous installer because I have the same problem with a manual installation of the latest github code as of today (2016/01/12).

Edit3: Raised a github issue. https://github.com/magento/magento2/issues/2972

  • Have you set file permissions as recommended? devdocs.magento.com/guides/v2.0/install-gde/prereq/…

  • This output looks normal.

  • @SteveJohnson The output "Command returned non-zero exit code"? Or the single test output. I got the deployment statement running without problems on my local machine and the end output of a successful deployment is way different.

Setting the php memory limit to 512M solved the issue.

    It is better if you set memory limit temporarily instead of change setting in php.ini. Try php -dmemory_limit=1G namespace:command

Apparently something goes wrong in the statement:

php -f /home/foo/public_html/m2test/bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy en_US 2>&1

The real error is not shown (Command returned non-zero exit code). Try to execute that statement manually to see what the real error is:

php -f /home/foo/public_html/m2test/bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy en_US

I had a very similar issue trying to change back to production mode.

It turned out to be because I had multiple versions of php available and where apache was configured to use v7 and I had been prefixing other commands with the correct path the magento deploy used the system version. Setting the correct path in the environment variable fixed the issue.
