Chokes on large files under 5.1.1

  • I can see that this has worked for many people, but the information should say specifically that it cannot handle large .odt files.

    I can’t beta test it to find out what the cutoff point is, but I can report this conclusively:

    ? Using an odt file of 5.6 MB, saving as draft, and then trying to preview, I get nothing but a blank white page. In other words, it doesn’t even show my WordPress blog logo, menus, and structure, much less anything where the post is supposed to appear!

    ? Using a larger odt file, one that is 10.1 MB, when I save draft and go to preview, my basis WordPress blog logo and menu bar are there, but none of my sidebars. In the space where the post should be, there is instead this:

    Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 268435456 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 72462702 bytes) in /home1/XXXXXX [domain name removed by me for this post]/public_html/chaletreports/wp-content/plugins/docxpresso/classes/ODF2HTML5/ODF2HTML5.inc on line 4604

    This renders the plugin useless for what I am trying to do.

    Dear mavante,

    The restrictions that you are encountering depend on the configuration of your server:

    • max upload file size
    • max memory allowed per PHP process

    and have nothing intrisically to do with the plugin.
    This said is never a good idea to load MegaByte files because the final user experience will not be good.

    Regards and sorry that the plugin does not cover your specific needs,

    Eduardo
