Tony Wood	Monday 12 May 2003 6:00:58 am Try increasing the amount of memory needed by PHP in the php.ini file... This is normally set to 18M for most setups.

Karsten Jennissen	Monday 12 May 2003 6:17:19 am You could ask Strato, whether a) you can override via .htaccess or whether they can do this for your virtual account. See here: http://ez.no/developer/ez_publish_3/documentation/ez_publish_3/typical_problems_and_solutions/not_enough_php_memory Hope there is a solution for you. This large amount of memory is only needed a few times I think as certain cache files are generated. Karsten
zackwlg zackwlg	Monday 12 May 2003 6:37:59 am thanks for the suggestion but strato said no. i am looking for a another webhoster. thanks. zackwlg
steve oshea	Saturday 24 May 2003 9:19:59 pm I also get this message, why should i increase the memory size when every other portal/cms works fine! This appears to be either a programming error or bad design!! which is it?
Karsten Jennissen	Sunday 25 May 2003 2:59:08 am Try this one: http://ez.no/developer/ez_publish_3/contributions/30_second_timeout_remedy Maybe it'll help.
Stephen Trembath	Tuesday 24 June 2003 5:14:49 pm There's one very poor workaround to this problem, if you can't access php.ini, but simply want to get a look at how your Exponential site looks. Keep refreshing the page a few times (you have to do it less as you move through the site, as it seems the classes are loaded) and eventually each page will load. This certainly isn't a permanent solution though! It would be great if the developers could address this issue. I imagine a lot of people with web hosting would have this problem, and many hosting providers are unlikely to agree to the change in PHP memory.
