Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted

[bweiser]

Hello, I'm new here...I've installed and have some screens working in the webauction script I am getting this Fatal error and have not been able to find a satisfactory solution.

Go easy on me I'm not a PHP programmer but I have been running my own Apache server 24/7 for over 10 years... I'm a Professional Photographer/ web designer and developer. anyway I did try a fix increasing the php.ini max memory from 16m to 32m with no success...

I also searched this forum and PHP documentation to see if I could solve this on my own...

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 311296 bytes) in /home/barry/public_html/webauction/dataface/Dataface/templates_c/dataface/%%08^08F^08FE976E%%Dataface_Main_Template.html.php on line 127

I located the offending file but line 127 is no help to a non programmer.

There are other problems but this one stops me from moving on...
Please feel free to ask for more information about my installation of the program. or whatever may lead me to a solution

Thanks in advance
Barry

Try adding:

ini_set('memory_limit', '32M');

at the beginning of your index.php file.
