Hi there when I activate the Automated Upcoming Event Notification (EE 4.9.44+) I get the following error Fatal error: Out of memory (allocated 173801472) (tried to allocate 64 bytes) I have spoken to our hosting company Heart Internet and they say that they have increased the memory_limit to 512MB and that’s the maximum we can set for the package.
ANy ideas please?
Many Thanks

Hi,

In addition to the host raising the memory limit, you will also need to raise the limit for WordPress. Here’s a guide that shows how:

Thanks Josh i have done that but i am still getting Notice: add_object_page is deprecated since version 4.5.0! Use add_menu_page() instead. in /*redacted*/public_html/wp-includes/functions.php on line 4435 Fatal error: Out of memory (allocated 161218560) (tried to allocate 72 bytes) in /home/sites/solentmathshub.org.uk/public_html/wp-includes/rest-api/class-wp-rest-server.php on line 1194

Would really appreciate some help as I can’t edit any pages/ posts.

Many thanks

Hi,

The last fatal error is from WordPress core which is an indication that something else other than Event Espresso 4 is causing the memory issues. Can you edit pages/posts with no fatal errors if the Automated messages add-on is deactivated?

Hi there,

The reason de-activating EE resolves it is likely just because it takes you below the memory limit rather than an issue in itself.

There’s a couple of inconsistencies above, from here:

I have spoken to our hosting company Heart Internet and they say that they have increased the memory_limit to 512MB and that’s the maximum we can set for the package.

So memory limit shouldbe 512MB from this point on, you also mentioned you increased the WP_MEMORY_LIMIT value within wp-config.php correct? I assuming to 512M to match the amount of memory available?

Problem is in your next reply, your still getting this error:

Fatal error: Out of memory (allocated 161218560) (tried to allocate 72 bytes)

161218560 bytes is ~161MB so your host says you have 512MB, you say you’ve upped the limit set within wp-config.php but your server reports you have ~161MB available?
