Problem creating images

Post by michael24 »

I am gettting this error Fatal error: Out of memory (allocated 30670848) (tried to allocate 3648 bytes) in /homepages/39/d338268016/htdocs/redhawk/joomla/administrator/components/com_phocagallery/libraries/phocagallery/image/imagemagic.php on line 214 when I am creating images automatically I have had my web host increase the memory to 32M is there anyway of changing how it create the thumnails, so it does not take up so much memory?

Hi,
see: https://www.phoca.cz/documents/50-phoca/ ... al-advices
[..]or resize images before upload to your server. Common servers have problems e.g. with images larger than 2MB. Such size of image is normally not used in internet so resizing original images before uploading is recommended. You can resize the images on your PC or they can be resized while uploading (using Java upload method - the size can be set in Phoca Gallery parameters)[..]
Phoca Gallery automatically creates thumbnails from images which do not have any thumbnails yet. This is why Phoca Gallery must check every image step by step. It can be challenging in server performance if there are many images in your gallery. If so, you need to enable Pagination Thumbnail Creation parameter in Phoca Gallery parameters, see: https://www.phoca.cz/documents/2-phoca-g ... -menu-item.
Hope this helps,
Kind regards,
Benno
