Hi all, I've been chasing around a memory allocation error for some time and can't figure it out. It is somewhat random - I can run the script 3 times and then it will happen, or sometimes the first time. It happens at the very end of a script, actually after the script has finished running. I will see the following after the closing </html> tag: Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 268435456 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 494142432 bytes) in Unknown on line 0 Just previous to this my mem usage is 3772104 The script itself does some database work (deletes, inserts, selects) but nothing very heavy and writes out an XML file. I use adodb 5.18, the server is PHP 5.3.18 (this was updated recently) and it is a VPS on inmotionhosting.com. As you can see, the memory limit is 256M so it's really high and I never see that I'm using more than 4M. The error doesn't fall through my error class - I'm assuming that's because it is happening after the script is complete. I am completely out of ideas on how to trap it or figure it out. Any ideas would be appreciated!
Try adding exit or die at the end of what you know is the end of your scripts. See if the problem continues. Maybe at the very end of your customer error handler.
If the problem stops showing up, you might want to look at your PHP config to see if anything is setup in the "auto_append_file" section.
