Verify PHP memory_limit

acarlsson · July 15, 2013

We are hosting our own server, it's a Mac OS X 10.4.11 with PHP 4.4.9

We have some problems with our forum that is due to a low memory limit in PHP.

However, I have changed the memory_limit on every place I could found (to 256M), without success.

Is there any way to *verify* the set memory_limit? php -i dosen't give me a clue.

Further, there is a line enabling "Zend Memory Manager". What is this and should it be on?

We are moving the forum to a new server later this year, but it's nice to have it working in the meanwhile.

Thanks,

/andreas

PHP 4.4.9 ?!?!?!?! You sure it's not 5.4.9?

You need to upgrade that... I'm honestly surprised your site is even working with that low of a php version..

Dmacleo · July 15, 2013

yeah that just caught my eye too

Run php info. It will show you what your values are.

If you set a different value and don't see it reflected, try restarting apache. Also, if you have a local php.ini, make sure it's set correctly there and also that your apache configuration is looking in the right place for local php.ini files.

phpinfo will also show you the configuration file loaded, so you can ensure you are editing the proper file/location.

Folks,

thanks for the answers.

No matter what I set the memory_limit value to, and restart Apache (have even restarted the server), I see no difference.

And yes, - it's v4.4.9...

Due to life I haven't been able to update it yet. Is it complicated?

acarlsson · July 17, 2013

Here's a version of the info output. As you can see we had a Filemaker Server on this machine as well. That is no longer running, but I can see that PHP still have some info about it. I have altered that php.ini file as well, just to be sure.

Maybe I'm blind, but I don't see a memory_limit reported in that php info.

You REALLY should update php.

It's not hard to update php. If you have yum on the server it can download everything for you.

Dmacleo · July 17, 2013

Configuration File (php.ini) Path => /private/etc/php.ini

if thats the one you printed here then the 256 isn't in it

really not sure how to update mac servers.
