Out-of-memory for plugins, RHEL 4 X86_64

Dear-list-members!!

I have a problem wth installing/running nessus 2.2.5. The machine is a Redhat enterprise linux 4 AS with all patches, 1 GB of ram. The machine runns some services but there is at least 200 mb free. The install is a vannila source installation -- no options just ./ configure, make, make install with no unusual warnings . When running a scan nessus does not seem to run any plug-ins - it can only tell witch ports are open - no warning or notes. (this is not surprising after looking in the log-file).

The start of nessusd.dump is below, and i have looked for hints for solving this problem but havent found any solutions. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
