You got that error message from using the Administrator tool??

Looks like the script is having trouble with directory creation (and possibly with ampersands). One for your official support provider.

I created one more project at the same time everything went fine. I see issue only with this project. Initially my assumption was while creating something might got interrupted and was partially done, but I closed and opened the admin and I don't see the project and I even checked at the Path which I provided no project directory was created. I am struck and don't know what else or where to check.

As noted, involve your official support provider.

The UNIX error message "Cannot allocate memory" stands out. I suspect either your user (dsadm) or system limits are being exceeded. What are your ulimit settings?

I only use dsadm user while creating projects. If it's the case with ulimit settings it's should be the case with all other projects correct? Like I said I don't have issue in creating other projects in same environment.
Arnd, I will also look into what you mentioned.

Your project name is standard right? No special characters, no spaces, etc...

There was a space issue and with help of unix team we resolved the issue.

Thank you all for your support.

Wherever you told it to create the project.
