Fatal error: Allowed Memory size

  • I am getting the following errors:

    Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 506880 bytes) in /home/manda/public_html/wp-settings.php on line 175

    Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 676664 bytes) in /home/manda/public_html/wp-settings.php on line 175

    On my dashboard where the stats overview normally is and on my sidebar where the lastfm scrobbler normally is. I started getting these errors when I upgraded to wp 3.0.

    I’ve already changed the memory allowance in php.ini to 128M but it hasn’t helped at all. :/ I am not sure what else I can do. I didn’t receive these errors before upgrading.

    First, try installing the Memory Bump plugin.

    If that doesn’t work, here are four ways to increase PHP’s memory allocation:

    1. If you have access to your PHP.ini file, change the line in PHP.ini
If your line shows 32M try 64M:
memory_limit = 64M ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (64MB)

2. If you don't have access to PHP.ini try adding this to an .htaccess file:
php_value memory_limit 64M

3. Try adding this line to your wp-config.php file:
Increasing memory allocated to PHP
define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '64M');

4. Talk to your host.

    I had already changed my php.ini file to 128M before I originally posted and it made no difference. ?? I tried the plugin with no help and adding that line to .htaccess caused an internal service error. Editing wp-config didn’t help either. So I guess I’ll try talking to my host.

    My website was working normally, but after testing some script all pages are blank now. It isn’t loading at all. No site, no admin panel. The error log says about Allowed memory size error. I’m aware about this error, but any of known tricks don’t work. I wrote to my host, but it doesn’t reply. Is there any way to make my site alive again? At least to see the main page or to log in to the dashboard? I tried to delete all my plugins, but it didn’t help too. I can’t change hoster right now, but I want my visitors to see at least something. Maybe I can reduce taken memory by deleting something? Please help!
