Hi Joomlapolis,
I just have a question with regards to image uploading in CB. I encounter the "Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 134272328 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 4452 bytes).." in directory. I have noted the problem happens when an uploaded image size exceeds approx. 3000 x 3000, however the file size is well under the default 2Mb limit. The test file was actually 208KB.
My web host allows a memory_limit is 128Mb. I was thinking CB image upload allowed for any image dimension size, as long as was under the default 2Mb?
Also, if I was to change this default to 10Mb (allowing for large photos), would that still be ok?
With regards to the image software, what are the main differences between ImageMagick, NetPBM and the default GD2 library? Is GD2 library preferred, or do any of the other softwares have advantages over the others?
So do the programs do the following - break the image into two smaller images and deletes the original?
It would be interesting to hear your thoughts on what may be the issue with the image upload for such a small file size vs image dimensions.
Thankyou for your help!
