#15569 Running Pants project's tests fail on arm64 Linux machine New issue created by alexey-tereshenkov-oxb Describe the bug When running

./pants test src/python/pants/backend/project_info/count_loc_test.py

in the checkout (c0386fe) of Pants repository, Pants fails with an error message:

E       ValueError: Could not initialize store for cache: "Error making env for store at \"/home/username/.cache/pants/lmdb_store/cache/3\": Cannot allocate memory"

This has likely to do something with the ARM architecture / memory management specifics. Running

./pants version

also results in an error:

$ ./pants version

Running the

version

command with an option set is fine, see https://www.pantsbuild.org/docs/reference-global#section-local-store-files-max-size-bytes:

$ ./pants --local-store-files-max-size-bytes=25000000000 version
2.13.0.dev2

However, running the tests setting various values for the option doesn't seem to have any effect -- the tests still fail. Pants version 2.13.0.dev2 OS
