It sounds to me like the "allowed memory size" went back to the default after they upgraded php. I usually have to update some of my config files after an upgrade. Nothing seems strange to me here... But maybe I am missing something. > I'm going to edit php.ini though what if "client" doesn't have a clue > what's php.ini or how to do it? Your clients shouldn't have a clue about the php.ini file, nor should they ever have to worry about it. However, I assume you mean the clients of the hosting company, which would be you. It is my opinion that you, as a PHP developer, have a responsibility to understand what the php.ini file is, what it does, and how to change it if necessary and you should have this knowledge before you begin writing code that would be used by anyone but yourself. -- Stephen Johnson c | eh The Lone Coder http://www.thelonecoder.com continuing the struggle against bad code http://www.thumbnailresume.com -- > From: afan pasalic <afan@xxxxxxxx> > Date: Thu, 20 Dec 2007 12:37:07 -0500 > To: php-general <php-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Subject: Why I sart getting "Fatal error: Allowed memory size..." after > php upgrade? > > The hosting company I have one account (and several Add Domains) > upgraded php on the server from 4.4.7 to 5.2.5.
