Marko 1473	Tuesday 30 November 2004 2:37:01 pm Hi all, I've just finished the installation of eZpublish (plain, english) and everything went without problems. However, when I tried to access plain/plain_admin I get the following errors respectively: - Plain: Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 12582912 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 12 bytes) in $HOME/htdocs/lib/ezutils/classes/ezphpcreator.php on line 489 Fatal error: eZ publish did not finish its request The execution of eZ publish was abruptly ended, the debug output is present below. - Plain_admin: Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 12582912 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 39 bytes) in $HOME/htdocs/lib/eztemplate/classes/eztemplateelementparser.php on line 466 Fatal error: eZ publish did not finish its request The execution of eZ publish was abruptly ended, the debug output is present below. I have the following system: eZpublish 3.4.4 Linux 2.4.20-30.7 MySQL 4.0.20 PHP 4.3.8 Any ideas why is this happening? Kind regards, Marko
Balazs Halasy	Tuesday 30 November 2004 2:55:27 pm Hi, You should try increasing the memory limit in php.ini. Look for "memory_limit". It is also possible to set it to unlimited. Balazs
Bruce Morrison	Tuesday 30 November 2004 11:03:05 pm Hi Balazs I think the recommended memory limit of 12Mb needs to be increased. > It is also possible to set it to unlimited. While this is true but the setting is there for a purpose, it stops php programms from using all your memory and grinding your server to a halt. This is a possibily if you set this to unlimited. Not something I'd recommend is done on a production server :) Cheers Bruce My Blog: http://www.stuffandcontent.com/ Follow me on twitter: http://twitter.com/brucemorrison Consolidated eZ Publish Feed : http://friendfeed.com/rooms/ez-publish
Marko 1473	Wednesday 01 December 2004 2:42:21 am What if I don't have access to php.ini? Is there another way to fix this? And what is a a reasonable value for memory_limit? Thanks.
Łukasz Serwatka	Wednesday 01 December 2004 2:47:33 am Hi, You can ask for help administrator which has access to php.ini. I recommend set memory_limit to 24MB. Personal website -> http://serwatka.net Blog (about eZ Publish) -> http://serwatka.net/blog
Marko 1473	Wednesday 01 December 2004 5:33:56 am Thanks for your replies. Unfortunately, web host support won't change the settings at all as the web site in on the shared server. Of course, I can (for the huge price) get a dedicated server :-( Any other options/recommendations?
Balazs Halasy	Wednesday 01 December 2004 8:23:37 am How about this: Try to turn off the template compiler (also maybe some of the caching mechanisms). Clear all caches and attempt to load the page. Allman
