hi all, i just clicked on the plugin manager today in CP and i got the following exception:

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 98304 bytes) in C:\AppServ\www\xengine\xengine\core\core.paginate.php on line 202

any insight as to how to fix this?  am running on 1.64 on a WAMP sandbox with no hickups.

thanks!

You need to up your php memory- it looks like it’s at the default 8MB.  I’d recommend at least 16MB and I usually go with 32MB or more myself.

You’ll need to check with the host on how to do this- often you can bump it up with an htaccess file, or edit php.inin if you have access- but it just depends.

Make sense?  If you like, I’ll give you a sample htaccess, but the best way is probably to look through your host’s FAQ.  I suspect it will be mentioned there.

ok, i think i got it… i found some “non-compliant” plugins in there, removed from plugin-dir and back to normal.

thanks for the recommendation rob, i’ll do this as well.

It could be the number of plugins that’s causing the issue.  If the plugin flat errors, I’d actually expect the error to be a bit different.  Which is not to say some of the plugins won’t error 😉.  But upping the php memory is definitely a good idea.

Glad you’ve got it working for now- and that you’ll check on the memory increase!  If you run into any more issues with it, just start up a new thread.
