# configuration error

 * Recently Contact Form 7 (CF7) started showing “configuration error[s]” and a “
   Fatal Error” has been appearing at the bottom of every page for our website.
 * Unfortunately I tried disabling and uninstalling and then reinstalling the plugin
   hoping it would solve the issue. The fatal error at the bottom of the page disappeared
   which confirmed it’s coming from CF7, but when I reinstalled CF7, all my forms
   were gone and the fatal error once again appeared.
 * The “How to Resolve Configuration Errors” page does not solve the problem and
   the syntax errors it claims some field have appear to be wrong.
 * Any suggestions other than getting a different form plugin?

 * What fatal error do you see?

 * Below is the complete text for the error that appears at the bottom of every 
   page:
 * “Fatal error: Out of memory (allocated 238551040) (tried to allocate 523800 bytes)
   in /nfs/c03/h08/mnt/49997/domains/circesoftware.net/html/wp-includes/class.wp-
   dependencies.php on line 344”
 * I searched Google and tried all the fixes associated with the wp-config.php files,
   and the .htaccess file. I don’t have access to the php.ini file.
 * Regarding adding the code “php_value memory_limit 64M” to the .htaccess file 
   in the root directory, I placed it before all text, I also tried placing it in
   several different areas within the existing text where it didn’t break existing
   code, and placed it at the end of the existing text, and each time it made the
   page disappear and left only the error–that is to say, the page didn’t load except
   for the error. Once I deleted the line I added, the page loaded normally but 
   continued to display the error at the bottom.
 * When increasing the memory by adding the line “define(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ’64M’);”
   to the wp-config.php file, it increased the memory, but continued to display 
   the error, all the way up to 512M.
 * I contacted the website host and they tried modifying the php.ini file and it
   continued.
 * We did narrow it down to one plugin that’s creating the error, Contact Form 7.
   Once it was disabled, the error went away.
 * I checked the file the error refers to, but I don’t know how to make the necessary
   changes on line 344 of the file (code below). I marked which line is #344:
 * /**
    * Recursively search the passed dependency tree for $handle * * [@since](https://wordpress.org/support/users/since/)
   4.0.0 * * [@param](https://wordpress.org/support/users/param/) array $queue An
   array of queued _WP_Dependency handle objects. * [@param](https://wordpress.org/support/users/param/)
   string $handle Name of the item. Should be unique. * [@return](https://wordpress.org/support/users/return/)
   bool Whether the handle is found after recursively searching the dependency tree.*/
   protected function recurse_deps( $queue, $handle ) { foreach ( $queue as $queued){
   if ( ! isset( $this->registered[ $queued ] ) ) { continue; }
 *  if ( in_array( $handle, $this->registered[ $queued ]->deps ) ) {
    return true;***
   LINE 344*** } elseif ( $this->recurse_deps( $this->registered[ $queued ]->deps,
   $handle ) ) { return true; } }
 *  return false;
    }
 * Any help would be appreciated.

 * Ok. What other plugins and theme do you use? Where can I see the site?

 * The website is [http://circesoftware.net/](http://circesoftware.net/)
 * The site uses the following plugins as well: “Meta Slider,” “Photo Gallery ( 
   Responsive ),” “Really Simple CAPTCHA,” “Redux Framework,” “Revive Old Post (
   Former Tweet Old Post),” and “WP Product Review.”

 * Try switching to the default theme and deactivating all other plugins.
