Insufficient memory (case 4)

    Hello,

    This has been driving me crazy for days now, but seems like a simple matter.

    I am trying to create an image gallery on my website. For the most part everything is fine, however I would like to add a few larger images. Now when I do that I get bugs with the thumbnails.

    When I try to generate thumbnails on the images I get this message: ERROR: Insufficient memory (case 4) `/home3/william/public_html/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/BhairavAttributesKali.jpg’ @ error/jpeg.c/JPEGErrorHandler/316

    Because of this, I cannot then edit thumbnails of these images. One image is like 30 mb. I did not think that size would be too large to handle.

    Please help if you can. This is driving me nuts!

    Yours,

    William

    Hello

    That means your system doesn’t have enough memory to handle resizing of an image of that size (too large, most likely).
    You might be able to increase the PHP memory limit to fix it, but I suspect you’re really hitting the memory limit of the system itself

    Check this

    Thanks.

    One image is like 30 mb. I did not think that size would be too large to handle.

    Seriously? Why would you think that? Of course it is too large to handle. The default PHP memory limit on most hosting systems is like 32 MB. Maybe 64.

    Google for “increase PHP memory limit” and also stop trying to load massively oversized images onto your website. 30 MB is gigantic.
