Memory problems when creating thumbnails.

[jefunne gimpelParticipant]

Hi,

When processing images most of my images receive the following error.

<b style=”font-size: medium; color: #000000; font-family: Times; line-height: normal;”>Fatal error</b><span style=”font-size: medium; color: #000000; font-family: Times; line-height: normal;”>: Uncaught exception ‘ImagickException’ with message ‘Insufficient memory (case 4)</span>

As result the image are processed but no thumbnail created.

What would be a common solution to this problem?

Cheers, Jefunne.

Have you checked the memory WP can use?

Thanks Redneck for asking.

Do you mean the one that I can change with the wp-config.php file?

At least that way I enhanced the WP Memory Limit already to 128Mb.

Is there any other way still?

Yeah, that’s what I meant. The Symbiostock settings page says “Your memory_limit should be set to over 64, ideally over 200.”
I have it set at 256MB. Maybe worth giving it a shot?

Thanks Redneck,

I did set the memory limit to 256MB, but keep having the same:

Fatal Error: <span style=”color: #272727; font-family: ‘Open Sans’, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 28.8px; background-color: #fbfbfb;”>Uncaught exception ‘ImagickException’ with message ‘Insufficient memory (case 4) </span>

messages and no thumbnails created.

 

So I guess I need to follow up on the suggestion George made and go to my host and see what they allow.

Thanks for the tips!
