Server logs would be quite important to solve this.

Anyway, I'm running the demo site also with mod_fastcgi, but on Apache2. I've not seen such issues. It may be related to exhausted PHP memory_limit for example, but the default of 8MB should be enough for b2evo.

This is what I was thinking about, some kind of memory limitations/restrictions by my provider.

But it changes also from time to time (related to server load?).

I've quickly installed AppServer 2.4.3 and it works localy with a similar environment:

Date: Thu, 29 Dec 2005 00:40:43 GMT
Server: Apache/1.3.33 (Win32) PHP/4.3.10
X-Powered-By: PHP/4.3.10

I'll drop a mail to support and will let you know if I get more informations.

Thanks!

Something happened...

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 6291456 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 239 bytes) in _db.class.php on line 514

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 6291456 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 107 bytes) in _db.class.php on line 514

/admin/antispam.php?action=poll

Yesterday I used the same feature which worked but that was on another box.

So, to be clarified with my provider.

Locally, where it seems to work, I've checked the limit, 8M:

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
; Resource Limits ;
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

max_execution_time = 30 ; Maximum execution time of each script, in seconds
max_input_time = 60 ; Maximum amount of time each script may spend parsing request data
memory_limit = 8M ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (8MB)

impaire, hte antispam update requires quite a few memory. (AFAIK it's the page which requires the most).

Ask your host to set memory_limit to 8M (with (fast-)cgi you cannot override it in .htaccess)).
I'm not sure, but perhaps you can forde it in /conf/config.php by using

ini_set( 'memory_limit', '8M' );

This could be the solution but I won't have access to this.

I think my provider will have to figure out what to do.

He should have two domains/boxes working the same and stable way, don't he? ;)

I'll push the latest antispam list in using any another way.

Thanks for your inputs!

The answer are:

- memory limit fixed to 6 megs
- this morning other customers complained and they rebooted the box.

did I kill it, I just changes skin scripts? :D
