Permissions were all right, but suddenly this started happening, but only x86_64 architectures only. Reason being the cPanel is killing the process, since it exceeded the memory usage allowed by cPanel.

Solution would be to increase the memory limit of cPanel by following the instructions below.

WHM -> Server Configuration -> Tweak Settings Choose the setting for:

The maximum memory a cPanel process can use before it is killed off (in megabytes). Values less than 128 megabytes can not be specified. A value of “0″ will disable the memory limits.

The settings had 256M there, and increasing the value to 1024 M helped. Server had 8G RAM, so the value of 1024M was fine here.
