And how do I fix it?

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 18388608 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 6800 bytes) in /home/busybee/busybeescrapbooking-www/photopost/image-inc.php on line 84


Thanks so much.

Hello that error means your memory has been exhausted

I can suggest in uploadphoto.php you find this

require "image-inc.php";

add above it this


ini_set("memory_limit", "32M");

Hi,

I've had the exact same error this morning while trying to upload pics. I've done as suggested but still have the same problem. Any ideas?

The top part of my uploadphoto.php file now looks like this:

require "pp-inc.php";
require "{$Globals['PP_PATH']}/languages/$pplang/uploadphoto.php";
ini_set("memory_limit","32M");
require "{$Globals['PP_PATH']}/image-inc.php";


Thanks,

Mike.

ini_set("memory_limit","32M");
require "pp-inc.php";

is how I would do it. What is the exact error you get? If it is forwarding to the bulkupload script you would need to add that to that script as well

The exact error is:

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 9360 bytes) in /home/fhlinux199/z/z3mcoupe.com/user/htdocs/photopost/image-inc.php on line 81

Well you must be trying to process ton's of files or something there

Your php memory is being used up and not much else you can do but set the line I suggested to add maybe to 48M

Hmmm, its quite a quiet server, this error is coming up while trying to process a single picture file of 483Kb.

Your PHP memory is being consumed that is what the error is saying. You can try installing Imagemagick and using that or if its already installed set the path to it so you can use it to process images. GD is known to consume PHP memory since it is part of PHP. This would not be an issue using imagemagick
