Osclass provides an option to increase the PHP memory limit to prevent errors such as "Allowed memory size of X bytes exhausted". The OSC_MEMORY_LIMIT constant, allows administrators to allocate more memory to Osclass-specific operations.
By default, PHP may have a memory limit as low as 64MB. However, modern applications require more memory to function efficiently. Increasing the memory limit is particularly useful when handling large datasets, processing images, or performing resource-intensive tasks.
256M (recommended for optimal performance, more is better)600 seconds (prevents script timeouts during heavy operations)5000+ (recommended for Osclass translations; 10000 may be required for core translations)To increase the PHP memory limit specifically for Osclass, edit the config.php file located in the root directory of your installation and add the following line:
define('OSC_MEMORY_LIMIT', '128M');For best performance, you may set it to:
define('OSC_MEMORY_LIMIT', '512M');If you need to increase PHP memory globally, modify the php.ini file (if you have access to it) and set:
memory_limit = 256M
max_execution_time = 600
max_input_vars = 10000After making changes, restart your web server for the settings to take effect.
If you do not have access to php.ini, you can try adding the following lines to your .htaccess file:
php_value memory_limit 256M
php_value max_execution_time 600
php_value max_input_vars 10000For some hosting environments, you may also need to modify the config.php file by adding:
ini_set('memory_limit', '256M');
ini_set('max_execution_time', '600');
ini_set('max_input_vars', '10000');Some web hosts impose strict limits on memory usage. If the above methods do not work, contact your hosting provider and request an increase in PHP memory allocation.
Properly configuring your PHP memory, execution time, and input variables ensures that Osclass runs smoothly and efficiently, preventing memory-related errors and improving overall system performance.
