Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 87 bytes)

Question

When I login to my web application it shows an error like:

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 87 bytes) in /gt/2.ps.fo/home/hft/domains/console.fo.spalgo.com/public_html/cake/libs/model/datasources/dbo/dbo_mysql.php on line 775

Is there any solution to solve this problem? Why do I get this error?

Answer 1

That sounds like you've allocated more memory than PHP will allow. Edit the memory_limit setting in your site php.ini configuration as described on the linked page.

Another possibility (less likely) is that you've hit the setrlimit(2) resource limits for your user or group. Check /etc/security/limits.conf for limits that might be set for your web server, along with whatever initialization scripts start your server environment and PHP interpreter environment.
