Fatal Error in Admin on Activation

    When I activate the plugin I get the following error in the admin. The front end seems unaffected.

    Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 41943040 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 30720 bytes) in /home/xxxx/public_html/new/wp-admin/includes/post.php on line 939

    This is on a brand new install no other plugins and still on the Twenty Fifteen theme.

    Thanks

    Hi,

    “Allowed memory size of XXXX bytes exhausted” is not uncommon in WordPress, it means the server has hit the PHP memory_limit and could not complete executing the code.

    But it’s odd that it’s on a brand new install with default theme and no other plugins, the server must be set to a really low limit. Which hosting provider are you using? And do you perhaps know what’s the PHP memory_limit set to?

    In any case, the solution is increasing the PHP memory_limit, some hosting providers have that option in the control panel ( if you can alter php.ini ) and if not then you need to contact the hosting provider about increasing it.

    It happened a few times in these past 2 years and it was always solved, either the user changing the limit himself or by contacting the hosting provider.

    But I don’t think it was ever on a brand new install with default theme and no other plugins, is it perhaps a free or cheap hosting?

    Thanks for the reply.

    It is a dedicated box with only about a dozen sites on it.

    It is currently set to 32M which has not been a problem before. I will try increasing it to see if that fixes the problem.

    Doubled it to 64 and that fixed the problem.

    Thanks for the help
