Fatal error: Allowed memory size

[vickwinata]

Hi,

I’m trying to import wordpress demo content with alt.xml

When I try to upload, I receive this error:

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 67108864 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 1688948 bytes) in /home/skydeptc/public_html/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-importer/parsers.php on line 66

I tried to search it up add find that I need to edit wp-config.php and add the following

define( 'WP_MAX_MEMORY_LIMIT', '256M' );

I tried to edit wp-config.php like this:

/**
 * For developers: WordPress debugging mode.
 *
 * Change this to true to enable the display of notices during development.
 * It is strongly recommended that plugin and theme developers use WP_DEBUG
 * in their development environments.
 *
 * For information on other constants that can be used for debugging,
 * visit the Codex.
 *
 * @link https://codex.wordpress.org/Debugging_in_WordPress
 */
define('WP_DEBUG', false);

define( 'WP_MAX_MEMORY_LIMIT', '256M' );

but it still doesn’t work. Can anyone help me where I’m missing?

Hi,

Check with your hosting if they have any limit in the memory of that server.

Also some plugins can be consuming too much memory try to disable some plugins to check if that still happens until finding the problematic plugin.

Thanks for the reply.

I checked with the hosting that they only allow php memory of 64mb. Is this not sufficient?

Hi,

Sometimes it’s not enough depending on the plugins installed.
