Upgraded to WordPress 2.6

July 17th, 2008 by hendra

Just finished upgrading to WordPress 2.6. Supposed to be a very smooth process but ran into problem with something like “Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 37890 bytes) in …“.

Tried for sometimes starting with adding php.ini, .htaccess to adding ini_set inside the script still didn’t work (my stupidipity :( ). Finally last attempt tried to get some help from hosting technical support and it didn’t take that long for the guy to fix it. The fix was by increasing the memory limit by editing php.ini:

[PHP]
memory_limit = 32M

So seem that creating php.ini with only this one line of memory_limit=”32M” like what I did before didn’t solve the issue, even when I called phpinfo() it showed me that the memory limit had increased to 32 MB :(
