[Plugin: W3 Total Cache] Fatal error: Allowed memory size exhausted

  • I see this listed as resolved, but it’s not for me. I’ve been seeing the “Allowed memory size” error all over the place, and I have the memory_limit for php set to almost 400MB.

    Over at VPS.net they sent me this:

    We analyzed system logs, they show a problem with WP plugin ‘w3-total-cache’.
    (PHP Fatal error: Out of memory (allocated 32243712) (tried to allocate 262109 bytes) in /home/site-a/public_html/wp-content/plugins/w3-total-cache/lib/W3/Cache/Apc.php on line 40).

    but I also got this (on a site not running total cache)

    Fatal error: Out of memory (allocated 34865152) (tried to allocate 193760 bytes) in /home/site-b/public_html/wp-content/plugins/post-plugin-library/common_functions.php on line 350

    and this

    Fatal error: Out of memory (allocated 34865152) (tried to allocate 17424 bytes) in /home/site-a/public_html/wp-includes/theme.php on line 180

    and this

    “Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 30720 bytes) in /home/site-a/public_html/wp-admin/includes/template.php on line 3317”

    I’m really at my wits end. I *want* to use W3 Total Cache, but it seems to keep fighting me and causing problems.

  • Yea I think so too. Plus if your on a shared server they don’t allow alot of changes to configurations so you don’t compromise the entire server. Dedicated server costs more but with the added support you can not beat it. Plus your allowed alot more freeway of making changes.

    Another thing and I don’t mean to make this into a publication but I wanted to hit on was if your running Headspace2 then make sure your memory limit is not set to default under the Headspace site modules settings. Look for the system settings row and you can set it from default to whatever you may need it at.

    Well cheers. Thanks for the follow up Frederick!

    No problem.
