how to prevent "memory exausted"

[Olaf Noehring]

Hi

how can I prevent / catch the error / work around this error:
"Fatal error: Allowed memory size of xxx bytes exhausted"

The script runs and stalls sometimes. Is there a way how I can prevent
this?

Hi Olaf,

That means PHP is out of memory.
You have several option now:
1) Make PHP use less memory by adjusting your script (if possible).
2) GIVE php more memory.

For 2), read on here:

and look for memory_limit
