node-pre-gyp install --fallback-to-build not generated anything

[ArkjuniorK]

Hi, I was unable to install bcrypt module on server, the lib folder that required by bcrypt is not build.

• What went wrong? I tried to install bcrypt server but node-pre-gyp the lib folder is not build and the node-pre-gyp did not gave me an error or response.
• What did you expect to happen? lib folder should be installed
• Which version of nodejs and OS?

  node -v  => 14.16.1
  OS => GNU/Linux/CentOs 7

• Log/Output

  npm info run bcrypt@5.0.1 install node_modules/bcrypt node-pre-gyp install --fallback-to-build
  npm info run bcrypt@5.0.1 install { code: undefined, signal: undefined }

After update npm to v7, now I'm be able to see the error that occured but still not solve the problem about the lib folder.

ENOMEM is a lack of memory. What is the memory limit on the computer you use to build the module?

[ArkjuniorK]

@gugu What do you mean about the memory limit? If it's about the actual size of memory then the size is 3gb, but then half of the size is used by server to run other programs. So we only have about 1.5-1.0gb of available memory. It is the problem?

Thank you.
