# Memory Error?

 * I’m trying to re-arrange my sidebar widgets, and keep getting the following error
   message: “Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried
   to allocate 98304 bytes) in D:\Inetpub\lightmasters\WordPress\wp-content\plugins\
   social\lib\social\service\facebook.php on line 391.”
 * What’s interesting is, I’m trying to move an Aweber widget, but the error is 
   regarding facebook.
 * I found a post online about resolving this memory issue that said to add memory
   to the “php.ini” file. I contacted my server about it, and they use Windows servers,
   and php.ini is apparently a Linux thing. The server tech guy also said he didn’t
   think it was really a memory issue.
 * I’m not sure why this started happening. It was all working fine until recently.
 * You can see the right sidebar widgets on my site here: [http://lightmasters.net](http://lightmasters.net)
 * Any suggestions? Thanks very much

 * It’s a general site issue – not a plugin/widget one. Try [increasing the memory available to PHP](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/253495#post-1017842).
