Thanks!

I bumped my script memory up to 24 mb to handle the files, but I was concerned about over allocation of system resources if I had too many users upload at the same time.

I'm sure all the roster users who can't fiddle with their systems base settings are grateful for your rapid response to this issue as well.

Thanks again!

I did Pleegwat's fix, but that didn't fix my issue. However, bumping php.ini from 8M to 24M did fix it... FWIW.

Thanks guys, cuz at the end of the day, that's all I wanted: for it to work!

The bigger your CP files get, the more memory is needed. The fix I posted reduces the amount of memory used by about 40%. That means you can upload CP's of up to about 1.4 MB instead of 1MB. If your file is bigger, or you upload multiple files, you'll still need to increase your memory allowed.

With the parser that comes with 1.7.3, you should have your memory set to at least 8 times the size of the file you're uploading
With my adjustments, you need about 5 times the size of the file in memory.

Hi.
I have the same problem and i tried the fix you explain here.
No change.

I tried to focus on what cause this, so
- i removed the characterprofiler.lua

Tried a new save just opening/saving the character DATA
i uploaded with success.

Then i add talents.
Ok.

finaly when i tried to add recipes it broke.
So it may be related with some recipes (French game) ?
or may be size of the .lua

i'll try some "Memory size pb fixes" and report.

This fixed it for me:

Insert the following code somewhere at the top of the update.php file:

Code: Select all

ini_set("memory_limit", "24M");

e.g. at line 34.

I've set the memory limit to 24 MB, so I can handle files with sizes till 3 MB.
With the adjustments of Pleegwat, you can use a lower memory limit.

So, multiply the file size you want to support with 8 (or with 5 if you use Pleegwat's adjustments) and there you have the memory limit you need.
