Error in installing a module
rezvani63 - April 25, 2008 - 11:31
I have installed Devel module, but once I enabled it I couldn't enter my administer and I got this error message:
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 941082 bytes) in C:\xampp\htdocs\drupal\modules\devel\devel.module on line 1351
I cannot enter the administer part to disable the module, also I deleted the devel folder from module folder and this time I got an empty page! and I copied the devel folder there again.
From another browser which I'm not logged in I can see all the contents of site without error! It's on Drupal 6.x and the module is for version 6.x also.
So what should I do to fix it?
memory exhaustion
This is not a problem with a particular module, but with PHP bumping into its memory limit. You're running XAMPP so there should be lots of tutorials on the web telling you how to increase your memory_limit value. I'd suggest starting with 64MB.
My experience with Drupal indicates that 32 MB (your current setting) is sufficient, but this may be different with 6.x.
Thank for your guidance, I
Thank for your guidance, I changed the memory limit size in php.ini from 32M to 128M and restarted my laptop, but still I have the same problem, I checked the php.ini and the variable was set to 128M.
So what else I have to do?!!
Your prompt help is highly appreciated.
