Failed to install mongoose with npm install --production

[skotchio]

I have the following package.json:

{
  "name": "project",
  "version": "0.0.0",
  "author": "",
  "license": "BSD-2-Clause",
  "dependencies": {
    "mongoose": "^4.0.2"     
}

When I try to install all dependencies by using npm install --production I get the following error:

make: Entering directory /var/www/.tmp/node_modules/mongoose/node_modules/mongodb/node_modules/mongodb-core/node_modules/bson/node_modules/bson-ext/build' CXX(target) Release/obj.target/bson/ext/bson.o 4567 Killed npm install --production 04/24/15 00:15:11 :: Error: Could not install all npm dependencies $ ../ext/bson.cc:1072:36: fatal error: opening dependency file ./Release/.deps/Release/obj.target/bson/ext/bson.o.d.raw: No such file or directory compilation terminated. make: *** [Release/obj.target/bson/ext/bson.o] Error 1

Please help me. What is the problem?

Did @nathanpeck 's solution suggested in the above issue work for you?

No I've found that the problem was in increasing limit of RAM. After I add swap file I get a success.
