These mean that half of memory is totally unused. You should upgrade to 64-bit Linux. "32-bit" means that nothing can go beyond 4GB.

Probably Linux has a limit of how much RAM it will allow any one process, such as mysqld. You have probably hit that limit. (I don't happen to know how to change the limit.)

The immediate solution (before getting 64-bit everything) is to decrease the main memory hog:
innodb_buffer_pool_size = 1500M --> 700M
That will probably be more than enough to get you going.
