sudo -u apache /opt/rh/rh-php71/root/usr/bin/php /usr/share/nextcloud/occ fulltextsearch:index

Getting a complaint on this that the memory limit is set lower than the recommended 512MB, and in fact the process crashes when it runs out of memory:

PHP Fatal error:  Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 26039464 bytes) in /usr/share/nextcloud/apps/fulltextsearch_elasticsearch/vendor/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/src/Elasticsearch/Connections/Connection.php on line 573

So, following this post:

NextCloud memory limit

You can try to adjust memory_limit near line 396 of /etc/opt/rh/rh-php56/php.ini …or run the occ command overriding the php memory limit: sudo -u apache /opt/rh/rh-php56/root/usr/bin/php -d memory_limit=512M /usr/share/nextcloud/occ files:scan -v username

I re-ran the command adding the flag of -d memory_limit=512M. But at that point, I get this:

Is it still running in the background, and I should just wait for it to finish? Or do I need to do something to kill the search process that was started, so I can restart it?
