Memory Limit Issues

  • I’ve been having an issue on my site when generating new galleries. It seems that on bigger galleries, memory limit errors will show up when generating the thumbnails. It seems to be limited to galleries with more images than others, and we use the same size source images for nearly all of them. Anything I could find on this issue suggests raising memory_limit in php.ini . Since I run off of my own dedicated server, I can raise this to whatever I need with no issues. However, I currently have it on 2GB currently and still have these errors. I really don’t like having it so high to begin with, so I was wondering if there was more to this that could be done. We consistently use this plugin and rely on it, so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

  • What do you have set as:

    max_execution_time

    Something more than 30?

    have you verified all the php.ini settings are ‘sticking’…with a phpinfo.php file.

    I assume you restarted the server after your edits to php.ini?

    Yes, my max_execution_time is much higher, and httpd has been restarted after all edits made to php.ini . I have a phpinfo file at https://missdream.org/phpinfo.php which confirms that the settings are sticking. Is there another variable that I might be overlooking in this?

    max_file_uploads is set to 20 ??

    Interesting, I’ve never come across that variable before. I’ve adjusted this to a higher number and applied it. My test had one file still produce that error, but after more tweaking and testing, that same exact file gave an error each time. Testing another big folder yielded no errors, so it looks like that did the trick! Thank you for pointing me in the right direction! I am curious as to why these settings have to be high, maybe because I host such big galleries on my site? In any case, it is good to see this working with no issues coming up, thanks again!
