Icy Phoenix

If you can see only the header of your forum or just a blank page, take a look if you can change the memory limit value and solve the problem.

add at the top of common.php



Some times, a Fatal error: Allowed memory size appears also. The fix for that problem it's the same written here

Maybe this is not the right solution for all, but it is worth trying.

I would like just to remember that you can increase MEMORY LIMIT in several ways and not only via PHP code (which should be allowed by your hosting though).

You can increase memory allocation by editing HTACCESS or PHP.INI as well. Of course your server should allow HTACCESS or you should have directly access to PHP.INI.

This is the code to be added in HTACCESS if you want to try:

hello!

Can you try latest Icy Phoenix and let us know?

Thanks.

In my forum appers this error, and I edited the files PHP in the lines and delete the show lines jejeje and the error not apper jeje..

Greetings!

Sometimes this is not the only reason...
Sometimes it is a double inclusion, or a double function declaration...

@nene94, BUT if you had to delete some lines the problem was, I think, memory limit...

@ULTRAMAX, I don't see blank page...

Greetings!

a friend help me to fix the problem, i guess that he re-upload all the files of the icy, because i lose the mods.

i will upgrade to latest Icy Phoenix.

I think whenever memory limit is exceeded, you always get an error message "failed to allocate blah blah". Faults / corruptions in def_themes.php and def_tree gives just a white page ;)

I had the same problem and needed both the first and second posts to fix it.

Thank you, both Zucker and MG. :mryellow:

It happend that to me when I executed first this CMS...

If MG didn´t removed the tutorial about .htaccess files, if should be there, for the .htaccess and for the config.php

Greetings!

Well, I'm not getting the white page of death anymore (see my post above), but when I try to post a new message I get:

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 67108864 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 3545735 bytes) in /home/xxxxxx/public_html/forum/includes/functions_categories_hierarchy.php on line 416

I've already tried the solutions above, but no joy. Can anyone help please?

This is strange...

What is line 416 of your file?

Can you provide a link to your board please?

I have checked your site, and I'm not 100% sure... but 90%... that your problem is related to the number of subforums... :shock:

It is not good having hundreds of subforums... users won't ever be familiar with all those subsections. Anyway it is your site, and you are free to organize it as you like.

The problem in having so many subforums is that for each forum many informations are stored and are retrieved while posting and while browsing topics... for each forum permissions are tested and stored in memory... if you have hundreds, then you have hundred of checks, and the system could run out of memory, and sometimes showing up white pages.

My advice is:

• Make a full backup
  
• Check that your backup is correct
  
• Make another DB backup using a different way just to make sure you don't have to recreate manually all those categories
  
• Trim subforums until you reach maximum 40 / 50 forums
  
• Try again to create new topics / posts

If you really need all those subforums... you may consider moving to another system because Icy Phoenix is not optimized to have so many subcategories. phpBB 3 should be able to manage all of them correctly.

Would changing most of them from forums to links save a lot of memory? Is it just categories and forums that take up a lot of memory, or would links too?

If you create Links it is the same... if you just need links, create a Block in the CMS inserting all of them in a block... you will see that it is much faster.
