Hello everyone,

I’m a beginner and this is just my second week of using influxdb. I’m getting this issue when I execute a query.

Query used:

select \* from “sample”.“\_” where time \< ‘2018-05-08 00:25:00’

Output:

> select \* from “sample”.“\_” where time \< ‘2018-05-08 00:25:00’  
> fatal error: runtime: out of memory
