CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

Hi all,

I am porting a Drupal/CiviCRM site to a new server.  I have Drupal running fine now but when I update civicrm.settings.php to have the correct $drupal_root I immediately get white screened and the logs have:

[Wed Aug 12 15:00:53 2009] [error] [client 24.252.73.183] PHP Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 67108864 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 7897026 bytes) in /var/www/vhosts/mysite.org/httpdocs/includes/bootstrap.inc on line 735

It may also be relevant that I did not have the normal Drupal htaccess file from the origianl site and have used one from the Drupal forums.  I'll past that in below my sig in case you are curious.

Any advice?

David

Hi Lobo,

Thank you for the reply.  As far as I know there are no non-standard civicrm modules.  The site came from developers who have been fired.  I am a solid OO PHP programmer but have no special expertise in CiviCRM or Drupal.

The site loads reasonably quickly when CiviCRM does not load.  When $drupal_root is correct it pegs the server every time.

I loaded the admin's by module view and got the following 65 modules.  Is this excessive by normal Drupal standards?

I very much appreciate your taking time with me on this.

In the morning I will look to disable some modules and enable CiviCRM and see if this helps.

TIA

David

You might also want to try upping the PHP’s memory_limit to 128M and see whether everything works then (and check which modules get you over the limit). As Lobo says, checking out the Devel module is also a good idea.

Thanks for the reply Piotr, I upped exec time to 60 seconds and memory to 128M and stopped and started httpd but the symptom remains the same.

The same as in ‘Allowed memory size of 67108864 bytes exhausted’, or the same as in ‘Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted’?

The former would mean that you didn’t really up the memory limit in the right place; the latter would mean that there’s something really strange, as CiviCRM by itself should definitely fit in 64 MiB of memory…

can you give us more details on what factors influenced the decision and why etc. that will help us improve the project for future folks
