Fatal error: Out of memory (but I’ve upped to 256M)

Hi @zoetwu

I am unable to see the page you need help with because you’re behind a coming soon plugin, but I would first recommend doing a plugin conflict test.

1. Turn on a default WordPress theme like 2016.
2. Visit the plugins page and select all the available plugins except SSP, then select ‘Deactivate’ from the ‘Bulk Actions’ drop-down menu.
3. Click on the ‘Apply’ button to deactivate all selected plugins.
4. When everything is off visit the area of your site where you are experiencing the issue with SSP and verify if the issue is resolved. If it is, move on to the next step.
5. Reactivate each plugin one by one until you are able to identify the plugin that is causing the issue.

Also, are you seeing the error only on podcast episodes or all blog posts?

Thanks Kelly. I’ll run through that and give it a try.
I’ve removed the coming soon holding page – so now you’ll be able to see what I mean if you go to https://thiswayuppodcast.com/podcast-archive/episode-47-jane-evans/ for example.
You can also go to https://thiswayuppodcast.com/this-way-up-podcast/ and if you scroll down, you’ll see the playlist (ignore the first three, I’ve been playing around with formatting). So just look at the single column on the left.

FYI I’ve also spoken to my host – they say there’s requests of over 700mb but I’m limited to 512mb. But all podcasts are less than 256mb so don’t know where the 700+mb is coming from and they’re not able to tell me specifically.

The fatal error is happening to every single post.

Hi Kelly,

I installed twenty sixteen theme, deactivated everything but SSP, but still have the same issue:

@zoetwu

Are you see this error on blog posts as well or just podcast episodes? The error is happening on the WordPress side with whatever those functions are trying to do. Perhaps you could disable the player from displaying on the episode pages (in Podcast -> Settings -> Player -> Deselect all of the player locations). Let’s see if the page will load correctly if it’s just text and not pulling any media.

@zoetwu

Just following up on this so this thread doesn’t hang open unresolved. Looking at the source code for the episode page,

<div class="ast-post-format- ast-no-thumb single-layout-1">

	
	<header class="entry-header ast-no-thumbnail ast-no-meta">

		
				<div class="ast-single-post-order">
			<h1 class="entry-title" itemprop="headline">Episode 47 – Jane Evans</h1>		</div>
		
		
	</header><!-- .entry-header -->

	
	<div class="entry-content clear" 
	itemprop="text"	>

		
		<br />
<b>Fatal error</b>:

Whatever is loading after that last div seems to be causing the fatal error. Do you know what element is trying to load first?

Hi Kelly,

Thanks for prompting me on this!
So I’ve disabled the player. The page now shows the text see here

Whatever is loading after that last div seems to be causing the fatal error. Do you know what element is trying to load first?

For this, I have no idea…The individual podcast pages are automatically being generated by SSP plug-in.

Hi @keleigh824

Just wanted to follow up on this. As I still can’t explain why the individual pages won’t load properly.

Thanks
Zoe

@zoetwu,

Can you activate the twenty sixteen theme and re-enable the player. Perhaps place the player position below the content. (Podcast -> Settings -> Player -> Media Player Position)

There seems to be a conflict somewhere since the media player works on other parts of your site but not on the episode pages. ??

Hi @keleigh824

So I just twenty sixteen theme, set the player position above, then below, but in both cases, I see the same fatal error message.

Is there any way or resetting something somewhere so everything is set back to default? Perhaps uninstalling then reinstalling the plugin? If I do that, is there a cache I need to clear somewhere?

@keleigh824
Just wanted to let you know, I deleted all podcasts, RSS feed and podcast details, deleted the plugin. I then reinstalled the plugin using (whilst using twenty sixteen theme).
Same issue still persistent.

Hi @keleigh824

I’ve decided to stop using Seriously Simple Podcasting as we’ve tried so many options and I need to get this site up and running.

So no further replies needed.
Not resolved, but closed.

All the best.
