Fatal error: Out of memory

  • First of all, I’m not sure about the wordpress version as my dashboard is now crashing before I can check, but it was automatically updating to a current version by itself.
    I’m getting this error: Fatal error: Out of memory (allocated 34340864) (tried to allocate 1610175 bytes) in /homepages/12/d256056811/htdocs/skle/wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 1092
    I’ve read numerous posts on out of memory errors, tried some of the fixes but no help. I have 1&1 as host and can contact them but if you read below, I’m not sure that’s the problem. I tried the wp-config.php mod to add more memory but it didn’t help.
    I then put the phpinfo.php line in and checked and for memory_limit, it shows 120M for local and master.
    This started yesterday after I had added a plugin for photo grid. It was working fine in the morning, but later started getting these errors. I have another plugin or two for photo gallery stuff and think it may be a conflict, but I can’t get to a backup or to turn off plugins without the screen going blank or getting mem error.
    On the web site, skaylee-events.com, I initially got to the photos gallery part before it went south, but this morning it is getting error right at start.. Any help appreciated.

    Your site is running WordPress 4.1.4.

    Fatal error: Out of memory (allocated 34340864) (tried to allocate 1610175 bytes) in /homepages/12/d256056811/htdocs/skle/wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 1092

    That’s a lot of memory to eat up. Something is losing it’s mind on your installation.

    Can you deactivate all of your plugins and switch to the Twenty Fifteen theme? These are temporary steps and if the problem goes away then can you put back the plugins one at a time? Hopefully that will let you find the problem plugin.

    thanks for reply. Right now, I can’t even get into wordpress. I get the out of memory error upon trying to login.

    If you name your “plugins” folder (in wp-content) as “plugins-old” then the plugins should automatically deactivate. You can rename it back after.

    So, now do I create a new plugin folder and start adding back the ones I have until disaster strikes again?

    You rename the “plugins-old” folder back to “plugins” and then reactivate your plugins one by one until you find the one responsible.

    Well, it appears Ithemes Security plugin isn’t playing well with others. I’ve had that plugin for a couple of years without any noticeable issues until now. Any other security plugin I should look into?
    BTW, my site seems to be back up and working normally. thx.
