NodeJS error initializing V8 on Gentoo AMD64

I managed to compile V8 engine on the machine, however when I type

$ node

FATAL ERROR: v8::Debug::SetDebugMessageDispatchHandler Error initializing V8

I have V8 version 3.6.6.11, the D8 console is working properly. I've tried portage version of nodejs 0.6.6, compiled version from github shows the same error. I guess the problem is with heap of stack allocation

$ ulimit -a

It is a virtual machine, that might raise some limitations...

Linux 2.6.36-hardened-r9-guest-hardened-01 x86_64 QEMU Virtual CPU version 0.13.0 AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux Any ideas?

Solution

after debuggin nodejs with Vyacheslav Egorov we found out, that mmap is failing to allocate memory (Operation not permitted) - this is caused by some Gentoo's security flag (changing it might require to recompile kernel)

Finally I used node v0.6 branch from github

./configure --without-snapshot
make
make install

and

paxctl -m /usr/local/bin/node

which adds MPROTECT flag

- PaX flags: -----m-x-e-- [/usr/local/bin/node]
        MPROTECT is disabled
        RANDEXEC is disabled
        EMUTRAMP is disabled

Note to myself:

when running Rails application on server put to config/boot.rb

ENV['EXECJS_RUNTIME'] = 'Node' if ENV['RAILS_ENV'] == 'production'
