I am having the same issue, not sure where I am going wrong here. Nothing in the log file

How many RAM and processors are in the server?
probably the cause of that.

I am running it on a 4GB LAMP Droplet

I resolved this issue by updating the composer and node packages; the path to the puppeteer executable wasn't correct it was using a different version path to the one that was installed on my server.

[Sirloko]

How can I check the path puppeteer is using? I already updated the node and composer packages

[valkyriweb]

Hey Sirloko,

I found it by looking in the .cache directory on forge for puppeteer, it had a reference to the installed chrome path, my chrome version was different on my local versus on the server.

Once I got that to match up it worked.

Kind Regards,
Luke
