    Default System resources needed?

    We've moved our 1.3.9a site to GoDaddy's cpanel hosting -- and it's not working.

    We're getting "Unable to allocate memory for pool" errors.

    GoDaddy says this is because the cart and our wordpress blog are "bumping up against the limits" of the hosting package and there's no option to increasing the resources (short of going to a managed VPS for $2500 a year.

    Has anyone heard of this? The tech I spoke with seemed very certain of herself, but it seems very odd.

    Love to hear some thoughts on this.

    Unless you have some mod installed that eats up memory resources, you shouldn't see this error with just Zencart and Wordpress. Insist that GoDaddy move your account to a less-crowded server. If they won't, find a different host.

    Well, that was my thought, but the tech said impossible, that we'd have to go with a managed VPS, or run the blog on a separate account with a subdomain. I've never heard of this before. And yes, I do hate GoDaddy. When I look at the GD control panel for the account, I see they've allocated us 512 MB of "physical memory" and that we're using anywhere from 100 to 400 mb of that -- it seems to vary wildly. I have no idea if this is normal or not. The cart, by the way, is in maintenance mode.

    Are there cache or log files that have accumulated? Perhaps your email archive needs to be purged?
    In the past I have found 'discontinued' images took up space too.

    Just a thought, hope it helps.
