I am trying to run a backup to Dropbox from a Wordpress website on sonic.net. But I'm getting the following error - Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 1718554 bytes) in /nfs/webroot/html/wp-content/plugins/iwp-client/backup.class.multicall.php on line 2116.

I tried updating the .htaccess and adding a user.ini but to no avail. Do have any suggestions?

Thank you,
Carlos

Carlos,

According to the support site [1] for the InfiniteWP plugin, you'll need to set the PHP memory limit to something such as 256MB. You'll need to do this by creating a file called .user.ini in the main directory for your site. Make sure the following line is present inside the file:

Code: Select all

memory_limit = 256M
If you still have trouble backing up the site, try using the 'failsafe' options, which can be found in the plugin settings panel under 'Files & DB'.

Hopefully this is helpful to you.
