Hi,

I am recieving the following error:

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 16777216 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 8640 bytes) in /var/www/prod/scrapbooking/photoGallery/image-inc.php on line 81

I've read through a bunch of posts regarding this problem, but can't seem to get anything to work. Our php.ini file was 8mb and I increased it to 16mb and am still having problems.

We are using GD2.

The file size limit is set to 1200kb (1.2mb)
The allowable width x height is set to 600 w x 900 h
and PP is set to resize the images down from there.

I am trying to upload a photo of just over 1mb, and is 2160w x 1728h

and I continuously get the error above.

I've removed all directories in the upload directory, doubled the php.ini memory setting

Is there anything more I can try?

Unfortunately we've got users that insist that they're photos are "webready" when they're really way too big.

If nothing can be done in this regard, can you tell me what the exact limitations of GD2 are? in terms of file size and dimensions, before GD chokes?

Also is there a work around for files that might be too big dimensionally for GD to handle?

thanks for the help
