First I want to thank Oliver Meyer for the very well done Magento E-Commerce Solution On Debian Etch How To. I followed it trying to install the Magento 0.8.17240 version. It was all ok until the command: ./pear install mage-core/Mage_All mage-core/Interface_Install_Default. When I give it I have the follows messages: Starting to download Mage_All-0.8.17240.tgz (1,969,565 bytes) .......................................done: 1,969,565 bytes downloading Interface_Install_Default-0.8.17240.tgz ... Starting to download Interface_Install_Default-0.8.17240.tgz (112,164 bytes) ...done: 112,164 bytes Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 16777216 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 8192 bytes) in /var/www/magento/lib/pear/php/PEAR/Installer.php on line 539 May anybody help me? Many thanks.
Please set the memory limit to a higher value in /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini and then restart apache and try again.
I tried to increse the memory limit in the php.ini. I changed the folllow: memory_limit = 16M into memory_limit = 32M and than memory_limit = 64M but I have always the same error message!!! Attached the phpinfo output. Thanks.
The local value for memory_limit is 32M, the master value is 64M in the phpinfo() output. Do you maybe use an .htaccess file where you set the memory limit, or do you do it in your Apache configuration or in your PHP scripts? Other than that I'd try to set a higher memory limit (maybe 128M or 256M).
