Another memory exhausted problem

[phill104]

I'm struggling to work our what needs changing with my php build here.

At first I was getting memory exhausted errors when uploading even small files (300*200 ad roughly 30k) so I changed the php.ini to

memory_limit = 64M
upload_max_filesize = 50M
post_max_size = 50M
max_input_time = 60
max_execution_time = 30

which allows me to upload those small files. Now if I try a file that is 3000*4000 at 250k ig get a 500 server error. It must be something to do with the php build but I'm a bit lost as to what to try next.

Memory usage doesn't depend on the filesize but on width+height+colordepth. For a pic the size you try to upload you'll neede approx 60M. That's why an app like Photoshop consumes all possible memory on your local PC and not just eg. 100k.

Some values you set in your php.ini just don't make sense and are way to huge. Read some php configuration docs to find values that mach your server specs.

Still trying to sort this. The error logs show this but I do not quite understand what it means.

Looks like you hit a hard memory limit imposed by your host.
