Hi
Your server doesn’t have enough memory to complete the installation of Nginx.
1:openssl-1.0.2k-16.el76.1.x8664: [Errno 5] [Errno 12]** Cannot allocate memory**
Try stopping the nodejs service while you install Nginx to free up memory for this particular task. Otherwise you’ll need to upgrade RAM.
Cheers
