    Am a little bit confused. I have a reseller account with 1 gb of physical memory. My host has made these settings in wodpress multisite

    on my .htaccess they have added 

    php_value memory_limit 1024M
php_value max_execution_time 3600M
php_value post_max_size 60M
php_value upload_max_filesize 100M

    on my wp-config.php

    define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '1024M');

    on my php.ini (inside of public_html)

    max_execution_time = 3600
max_input_time = 60
memory_limit = 1024M

    and on my php.ini (in root of)

    max_execution_time = 600
max_input_time = 60
memory_limit = 1024M

    on phpinfo.php show me this right now

    memory_limit 64M(local) 1024M(master)

    on nextgen server infos show me this

    Operating System : Linux (64 Bit)
Server : LiteSpeed
Memory usage : 13.16 MByte
MYSQL Version : 5.1.65-cll
SQL Mode : Not set
PHP Version : 5.3.18
PHP Safe Mode : Off
PHP Allow URL fopen : On
PHP Memory Limit : 1024
PHP Max Upload Size : 100M
PHP Max Post Size : 60M
PCRE Backtracking Limit : 500000
PHP Max Script Execute Time : 3600Ms

    on server info’s of Simple Ads Manager shows me this

    WordPress Version: 3.4.2
SAM Version: 1.7.57
SAM DB Version: 2.1
PHP Version: 5.3.18
MySQL Version: 5.1.65-cll
Memory Limit: 256M

    The settings that my host made should be changed?
    Why on the plugins shows different results for my php memory limit?

    1G seems like a lot for WP. Try with 128M I run two networks and nobody has complained about memory limit errors so far 🙂

    Oh! and max_execution_time is about seconds; 3600, again it’s too much, danger of DoS on scripts going bad at runtime.

    ok, i change everywhere to 128m and max_execution_time to 600, but I see no difference in my Fatal error: Out of memory :/

    You only have a little over 182M available to PHP! You need to go back to your hosts with that error message – especially since they’ve been trying to raise your memory allocation by more than 5x that amount. I can only guess that there’s an issue at the server level that they’ve overlooked.

    I’ve sent these data with a ticket to my host
    and he told me that he doesn’t see any error, not in the root site and not in any other page. And he asked me to give him the exact URL which is showing the memory error.

    And I am asking you what can I send when this is tottaly random, I can’t determine when is showing it or it shows white pages randomly. I feel that they are fooling me now, am I wrong?

    Looking at that error log, the PHP memory allocation is all over the place! In some places, it’s as low as 9M!

    Try asking your host how he accounts for the wild memory fluctuations.

    answer of my host..

    I could see that your account php memory limit was set to 128MB which resulted this. I have increased it so 512MB. Are you getting memory errors on any script installations at the moment?

    hat can I send when this is totally random, I can’t determine when is showing it or it shows white pages randomly.

    on php.ini (public_html) is

    ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
    ; Resource Limits ;
    ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

    max_execution_time = 600
    max_input_time = 60

    and on wp-config.php is

    define(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ‘128M’);

    so we have to change and those right?

    Your hosts said:

    And your error logs include:

    Which part of “PHP Fatal error: Out of memory” is your host having problems understanding?

    Unless you can escalate this to a better level of support with your current hosts, I think you need to look at moving to another host. I am at a complete loss to explain their responses.

    Hi,

    Error logs showing your account still showing memory errors. While checking further, I could see that mysite exceeded allotted resource multiple times, which caused this issue.

    =================
    mysite site.com 0.41 0.10 0.1
    mysite site.com 93.0 lsphp5:/home/mysite/public_html/index.php
    mysite site.com 72.0 lsphp5:/home/mysite/public_html/index.php
