Title: Fatal Error
Post by: PostModN66 on January 13, 2016, 10:43:41 AM
Just got this when trying to upload a photo!  :goggleeyes:

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 8589934591 bytes) in /www/sites/b83/37d/www.ngaugeforum.co.uk/web/SMFN/Sources/Aeva-Exif.php on line 2360

May be me...I'll switch off and on again!


Cheers  Jon  :)

is it just me
I've just uploaded a pic with no problem.

Check the file size of your pic
( cos that error msg. looks like it is trying to allocate an enormous space ( 8Gb ?) which would cause a bit of a hicup ! )

Hmmm..... 1.5 Mb......pretty much the same as other pics I have loaded....

I'll reduce resolution and try again

Reduced file size to 57Kb and it has worked fine...

Good enough a work-around for me!

I don't know an awful lot about the nitty gritty of image files, but I know I can load pics onto here straight off me phone, but I have to use a (free) compression program on any pics taken with my DSLR.

You had me worried for a bit there.  Glad all is sorted.  :)

:laughabovepost: is blueray a doublenintendo ?

The rules say "Maximum file size:- 3mb" so, assuming its not really 3 millibits (!), there should not have been a problem with ~1.5 but as the error msg is deffo in bytes some more testing would be indicated to assess the size of the universe.

I've had problems with uploading files just less than the 3mbyte limit, so maybe it should say 1 meg instead.
