Occ not working at all

Nextcloud version 21.0.1
Operating system and version debian 4.19.0-12-amd64
Apache or nginx version 2.4.38
PHP version 7.3

The issue you are facing:

Hi, I noticed that my cronjob was not executed since 14 days. It worked for years before. I tryed to start it manuell from within the console with

su -s /bin/bash www-data
php7.3 -f /var/www/nextcloud/cron.php
php7.3 -f /var/www/nextcloud/occ system:cron

Even the adding indices is not working with occ. While manually axecuting this command it is executed for a few seconds and afterwards the console is telling me that the process is killed.

Is this the first time you’ve seen this error? Yes

I am having the same issue since upgrading to NC21. What is the error message you get when you run occ or from cron? Here is what cron tells me:

PHP Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 2097152 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 438272 bytes) in /var/www/nextcloud/3rdparty/composer/autoload_real.php on line 37

There are some troubleshooting suggestions in this other topic but it’s a convoluted mix of situations and none of them worked for me yet. I am still digging!
