Background

I launched an AWS EC2 instance using Amazon Linux 2 AMI, and I launched Jenkins in a Docker container on this instance to build my project.

Problem

However, Jenkins failed building the project, and the Console Output logged the error below:

What’s wrong

That was because I was running the EC2 instance using t2.micro instance type, so the build failed because of OUT OF MEMORY.

Solution

We can add swap to the EC2 instance.
By default we don’t have swap space. To confirm this:
Just add some. Try with 1 GB for begin.
Check again:
