I am installing Nominatim on my Ubuntu server 14.04 through this link and trying to load OSM data into my postgreSQL database. For loading into my database I am using this command as given in the link:
~/Nominatim/utils/setup.php --osm-file data/latest.osm.pbf --all --osm2pgsql-cache 1024 2>&1 | tee setup.log
But it is throwing an error

Allocating memory for dense node cache
Out of memory for node cache dense index, try using "--cache-strategy sparse" instead
Error occurred, cleaning up
ERROR: Error executing external command: /home/nominatim/Nominatim /osm2pgsql/osm2pgsql -lsc -O gazetteer --hstore -C 256 -P 5432 -d nominatim /home/nominatim/data/latest.osm.pbf

My ubuntu has 7GB of RAM and I am not sure why this error is coming. I ran the above command by reducing the cache size to 512 and then 256 but it is running into same error. I am not sure how to use --cache-strategy sparse in the given command.

Could anybody help with the setup?
