If you are getting this error: "Uncaught ErrorException: preg_match_all(): JIT compilation failed: no more memory in" when running composer install , maybe this can help you.

 

Check in your php.ini file what is the setting for pcre.jit

First we will find our php.ini file, run this in your terminal window:

                    php --ini

In our case you will get something like this:

php.ini location
php.ini location

 

Ok, so now we know that location of our php.ini is 

                    Loaded Configuration File:         /usr/local/php5/lib/php.ini

Next, open it by using nano  but be sure to be logged in as super user with sudo su command:

                    nano /usr/local/php5/lib/php.ini

Find pcre.jit, when nano is open press control+W and type in pcre, when you find it be sure that it is uncommented and that value is 0:

                    pcre.jit=0

Next, press control+X to save your changes and type Yes when asked.

Restart apache and your changes will be applied:

                    sudo apachectl restart

 

Your composer command should work now.
