Happened to me as well:
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 2356995 bytes) in /home2/mcdragon/public_html/blog/wp-includes/http.php on line 1331
The fix you suggested did not solve the problem 🙁
Is there anywhere in particular this has to be entered in wp_config.php
Right solved!
When you open the wp_config.php file put the following string
define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '64M');
at the very beginning of the file, but just after the <?php tag, OK.
I put it at the end (and yes, it was within the <?php ?> tags at first and that didn’t work.
Thanks. It worked for me.
define(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ’64M’);
Hello,
I have this same issue, but I can’t seem to find the wp_config.php file. I have looked in every folder in my CPanel (BlueHost) and have been unable to locate. Can someone supply the proper path to finding it? Thanks.
@phillauterjung the “wp_config.php” file will be in the root directory of your WordPress install. It is in the folder that contains such folders as “wp-content” and “wp-includes”. It may be a problem with cPanel not allowing you to access these locations.

You have to love it when you do a search in a forum and the hit at the top of the list cures your problem.
Big thanks.
It’s great to see there’s a solution to this little problem but I am curious as to ‘why’ it’s happening. It’s a little scary when my WP doesn’t want to update like it should.
1. If you have access to your PHP.ini file, change the line in PHP.ini
If your line shows 32M try 64M:
memory_limit = 64M ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (64MB)
2. If you don’t have access to PHP.ini try adding this to an .htaccess file:
php_value memory_limit 64M
3. Talk to your host.
None of these worked, just tried upgrading to 3.0 and what a goat rope. Server says it’s WP coding error, need assistance please.
Per nacin:
We’re in the process of pushing out a plugin for this: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/memory-bump/
In the meantime, you can also add this to your wp-config.php file:
define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '256M' );
The issue is that WP *may* need more than the default 32 MB to upgrade to 3.0, due to the increased package size over 2.9. This is a “known issue”.
3.0 handles this by always bumping you to a very high memory limit in the admin area, so you won’t see this once you’ve hit 3.0.
I had the same problem and it worked for me – thanks for the help much appreciated – Mick
