Memory Exhausting During Installaton

Monday 07 June 2010 1:13:35 am

Hy and welcome to eZ-Community :-)

After changing php-memory-limits or doing other changes to the php.ini, make sure to reload/restart your webserver to make changes taking effect.

Speaking of the php.ini, what ini did you modify? The cli or the apache one? What webserver/system did you use (apache on linux or iis on windoze) ?

Such error is very well known here, so searching for "php memory limit" should point you to several good threads too.

cheers,

hehe, modifiying the CLI php.ini is wrong :-)

Cli php.ini is for your commandline based php (scripts, cronjobs, ...)
There should be another php.ini which is used by the webserver. Php (and those websites as ezpublish) runs as a sort of plugin in the webserver. Thus the webserver needs to have a php.ini too.
In linux/debian you should have the following files:

/etc/php5/apache/php.ini is the one you need to edit for ezpublish.
/etc/php5/cli/php.ini is the one for cronjobs, and common commandline-php scripts.

I don't know the locations on windows7 and IIS.

My guess is you hit the wroong php.ini.
Utilize a simple php-test-script using "phpinfo();" (google it if you need help) to determine the exact location of the php.ini used by windows-webserver.

mmmhhh,

did you manage to put "phpinfo()" into a php file and called this php-file in your browser?

My guess would be that the vhost configured in IIS did not load the correct/corresponding php-ini. This in turn loads the default php-settings which is not sufficient for eZPublish.

My solution would be:

• view php-info output via a browser, not cli
• get the location of the loaded ini-file
• edit this ini-file
• reload webserver
• check settings again
• do loop until correct

As I dont have any experience with combination iis/php/ezpublish/windows i cannot help any further at this point. sorry mike.
