AppScale on virtualBox errors on customization command.

[Moussa Jimi]

Hi,
I have tried to deploy  appscale 3.1.0 on Virtualbox 5.1.14

I ran the steps:

- install virtualbox

- install vagrant

- download appscale virtual machine

- vagrant init & configuration

- than vagrant up

when i make vagrant up, i have a problem with customization command.
Here are the errors when running vagrant up:

cloud@cloud-TravelMate-P253:~/appscale$ vagrant up
Bringing machine 'default' up with 'virtualbox' provider...
==> default: Checking if box 'appscale/releases' is up to date...
==> default: Clearing any previously set forwarded ports...
==> default: Clearing any previously set network interfaces...
==> default: Preparing network interfaces based on configuration...
    default: Adapter 1: nat
    default: Adapter 2: hostonly
==> default: Forwarding ports...
    default: 22 (guest) => 2222 (host) (adapter 1)
==> default: Running 'pre-boot' VM customizations...
A customization command failed:

["modifyvm", :id, "--memory", "4098"]

The following error was experienced:

#<Vagrant::Errors::VBoxManageError: There was an error while executing `VBoxManage`, a CLI used by Vagrant
for controlling VirtualBox. The command and stderr is shown below.

Command: ["modifyvm", "16ffd4b5-19b6-4573-9242-c7f6effd7baf", "--memory", "4098"]

Stderr: VBoxManage: error: Invalid RAM size: 4098 MB (must be in range [4, 3584] MB)

VBoxManage: error: Context: "COMSETTER(MemorySize)(ValueUnion.u32)" at line 599 of file VBoxManageModifyVM.cpp>

Please fix this customization and try again.

Hi,

It sounds like your computer may not have enough available memory to give the virtual machine 4GB. You can edit your Vagrantfile (generated by the `vagrant init appscale/releases` command) and change the memory from 4096 to something like 3072. Though at least 4GB is recommended for production, 3GB should work for basic testing.
