Want to take a guess at what this means?
When I tried recompiling apache using Easy Apache I got this error:
Critical Warning (VZ): You are only only allowed to use 129 Megabytes of ram! 512 Megabytes is recommended. !!
I am paying for 512 Mb ram and 1GB Burst
What do you think this means. 1 I do not have enough ram, 2, I am not getting what I am paying for? Or 3. This is a glitch of some kind?
Just curious what the community of web hosting techs, and owners has to say about this.

I'd guess probably all 3 (the glitch being in your host's provisioning system), but to find out,
Code:cat /proc/user_beancounters

OP isn't here demanding special treatment - he's asking for opinions.
FWIW, my opinion is that your VPS is definitely not right and if you ask your host I'm sure they'll be happy to fix it for you.Chris

Yes I did check with my host this is what they told me:
It's not related to the allocated memory your server but a default recommendation by cPanel, you may ignore that as you still would be able to recompile PHP and Apache without any issues.
I also investigated the actual memory usage of your server and didn't find anything suspicious.

From your post:
privvmpages FAILED value 147499
Seems oversold
The size of private (or potentially private) memory allocated by an application. The memory that is always shared among different applications is not included in this resource parameter.

Not necessarily oversold but certainly badly misconfigured. Your burst memory (privvmpages) barrier and limit are set far too low, directly causing the problems you're experiencing (both easyapache and the "cannot allocate memory" from bash). Any competent host would immediately see this from your beancounters printout and fix it for you.
Unfortunately...
It's not related to the allocated memory your server but a default recommendation by cPanel, you may ignore that as you still would be able to recompile PHP and Apache without any issues.
I also investigated the actual memory usage of your server and didn't find anything suspicious.Chris

Ok, correction: this is one of those VEPortal (resold Burst.net) VPSs with the strange beancounters, right? In which case I was wrong about the numbers. F-DNS has a detailed explanation here.
In any case the 147499 fails still indicate a major problem. Perhaps it is oversold, or you're just using more memory than you have available.Chris
