Allowed memory size

[blue-grape]

Using v150.

Just been looking at some myDEBUG files in my cache folder.

30-Aug-2012 17:08:04] PHP Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 145534213 bytes) in /home/www/my-site.com/includes/functions/html_output.php on line 62

In the control pannel of my hosting account I have php settings and the memory limit is 128M; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (128MB)

Is 145534213 bytes larger than 128 MB? Sorry I'm not good at this kind of thing.

Any suggestions on how to fix this memory size problem?

I would be looking at you database for tables with a great deal of overhead or in need of repair.

That sort of thing is usually caused by a plugin (or code changes you made yourself) that's retrieving database data in a while() loop but never completing because the while() loop doesn't have its moveNext() call in it.
Or something similar which is just chewing up RAM without properly finishing what it's working on.

Since that symptom doesn't occur in a fresh install of Zen Cart having no customizations or plugins, it's likely something you've added/changed. Thus the following process is most effective at identifying all the ways in which your code differs from the normally functioning ZC code: http://www.zen-cart.com/wiki/index.p...Obscure_Issues

it does occur in a fresh install. no mods no nothing.

Really? How exactly?

"(tried to allocate 2268833753 bytes)" says it's trying to allocate 2.2 GB of memory. There's nothing built-in to original Zen Cart code that triggers anything like that.

Sounds like something amuck on your server. It will require some careful advanced debugging on your server to find out what's causing it.

it only happens sometimes when i try to log in.
i can give you a test login if you want to try.

[jimmie]

if i refresh it will then log in.

Is this with user logins or the admin logins?

I've just created a user login for both your sites
www.floorz-n-more.com/mysite &
www.floorz-n-more.com/

...........and although I have no way of looking at your log files to see if either of these created the error, I did note that both logins were quite responsive, which isn't something I'd be expecting if a fatal error was occurring.

Would I be wrong in assuming the problem only occurs with the admin login's?

Knowing this won't provide a solution, but it may narrow things down a bit.
