Memory for pool!

Permalink June 08, 2011 at 11:49 AM

Can anyone help with this... I am getting an error on one of my sites in edit mode and dashboard.

Unable to allocate memory for pool

If I put this into Google quite a few of my sites come up, any idea what's going on. Thanks in advance. David

Try increasing PHP's memory limit in your php.ini file (it's on your server somewhere, in a different place for every web host so I can't tell you how to find it exactly -- check with your web host's tech support or knowledge base if they have one).

Also, it may be due to APC caching on your server, see this:

Edit the global php.ini
Simply add:
apc.shm_size="512M"
restart server
