exception: [Warning] require_once(): Unable to allocate memory for pool. [common.inc:5109]

Even if your tests pass locally, you might get this error on Jenkins.

If you are using drush test-run to run your tests, and are seeing Exceptions which don't exist in your local tests, you can output the results like this:

drush test-run --xml=test-xml tremblant_deploy -y

Then you can archive artifacts at test-xml/*xml

These artifacts will contain this warning which might be causing your test to fail.

My (temporary) solution was to disable APC (I know, a bad idea) and to jack my php memory limit to 1024.

I fix this by leaving APC enabled and modifying the apc.ini file to allocate more memory to each shared memory segment.

/etc/php.d/apc.ini

apc.shm_size=256M

The old value was 64M.

I then issue a command to restart Jenkins only.

I also did a sudo apachectl restart. It would be good to add this to the puppet files, because on two different servers provisioned with the script I had to repeat the process.
