Fatal Error when editing sip.conf

unisport · **Posted:** Mon Apr 27, 2009 6:57 am

I have this error when editing sip.conf, iax.conf and extensions.conf with the config editor:

Code:

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 16 bytes) in /var/www/a2billing/admin/Public/cls_phpconfig.php on line 136

I am pretty sure it is nothing to do with php size limit as it does also happen even if i increase the memory linit to 512M.

The linux i am using is a debian and i did follow the steps in the WIKI not only once but twice.

You have to change the "memory limit" in your php.ini to 16 MB.
If this doesnt work, verify the owner and permissions to .conf files.

The error message would tend to indicate that it is most definitely related to lack of memory. Perhaps you forgot to restart Apache after changing php.ini?

I think the problem is owner and permissions as changing memory limit did not help.

What owners and permissions should i set to the .conf files?

If that were the case, surely it would be throwing an error about 'permission denied' rather than 'memory exhausted'.

They must be readable & writable by the user Apache runs as, and readable by the user Asterisk runs as.

apache is indeed restarted with command

Code:

Asterix-A2Billing:~# /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
Restarting web server: apache2 ... waiting .
Asterix-A2Billing:~#

I've only looked at the .conf file editor briefly, but I found it incredibly slow. If your .conf files are burgeoning with SIP/IAX peer definitions I imagine your results will be even less satisfactory. It didn't exhaust 128M (the same as you have configured) when I tried it, but it did take nearly 5 minutes to display a simple .conf file.

I had the same problem: I worked around memory size and permissions.

My memory limit in /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini (ubuntu) is 43 MB
I left root as owner of .conf files, with 666 permission.

All works good. I don't experience the slowness about was talking stavros (which I thank again for the support always fast and valuable).

Surely this was the solution...

Code:

/etc/php5/apache2/php.ini (Debian) is 43 MB

and

Code:

.conf files permission to 666

I'm sorry: my memory limit is 32 MB instead of 43 MB (writing error...)
