DB Backups module error: Allowed memory size exhausted

[cpx3]

Hi there,

when trying to backup the database with the backup module I always get the error message: Fatal Error: Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 4096 bytes) (line 1325 of wire/core/WireDatabaseBackup.php) . Any idea how to solve that? Thanks in advance!

Hi @cpx3 these kind of messages I only got a long time ago when I was using hosting providers which sucked in providing enough memory limit in shared hosting but I have never used the backup module.

stanoliver, I have my own server and the PHP memory limit ist set to 128 MB. The interesting thing is that the problem only occurs with one site and that I read in the forum that it might have a relation to a module that renders two input field buttons. But I don't have any idea which it could be.

@cpx3Most shared hosting provider I used in the last 2 years at least provided 256 MB PHP memory limit. If it's your own server may you can try to set it up to 256 or 512 MB. If that does not change anything either some coding went definitely wrong.

The problem seems to be a module as this only appears at one site and I found that solution here in the forum. But how could I determine, which one?
