RangeError: Array Buffer allocation failed #53

I am trying to export key with password passed to the keyethereum module. Code is as below:

params = { keyBytes: 32, ivBytes: 16 }; options = { kdf: "scrypt", cipher: "aes-128-ctr", kdfparams: { dklen: 32, n: 262144, p: 1, r: 8 } }; keythereum.create(params, function (dk) { keythereum.dump(password, dk.privateKey, dk.salt, dk.iv, options, function (keyObject) { keythereum.exportToFile(keyObject, config.get('Application.envConfig.serverFileLocation'), function (response) { log.info("successfully created new account:" + response); def.resolve({error: undefined, response: response}); }); }, function (err) { log.error("error occured while creating address:" + err); def.reject({error: err.stack, response: undefined }); }); }, function (err) { log.error("error occured while creating address:" + err); def.reject({error: err.stack, response: undefined}); });

But I am facing:

"RangeError: Array buffer allocation failed", " at new ArrayBuffer ()", " at module.exports (/home/ubuntu/v3/v2-node-latest/node_modules/keythereum/lib/scrypt.js:357:11)", " at Object.deriveKey (/home/ubuntu/v3/v2-node-latest/node_modules/keythereum/index.js:207:18)", " at Object.dump (/home/ubuntu/v3/v2-node-latest/node_modules/keythereum/index.js:394:10)",

Hm, I tried this example and it works for me: https://gist.github.com/tinybike/e5602d2dc474746f427cea39c545dbd0

What environment are you running this in? What version of Ubuntu? What version of Node? How much memory does your computer have?
