CMSMS 2.0 (say what now?!)

PHP 5 as standard has a 128mb memory limit anyway on most hosts.

You have to move with the times I am afraid. PHP 4 is far too old.

I am not saying I don't have the facility to increase the memory but it is a work around again and not the server being set by the supplier to what would be considered reasonable by programmers.
My host has both PHP4 and PHP5 and I can increase the memory by adding a file to root of my site php.ini and adding the one line memory_limit = 32M.
It works fine for me but as for 128MB I think they may bitch a bit at that as a modern server with only 1GB of memory and 1,000 websites on it with 20% using php they are asking for a crash.

Thanks anyway for the input it is just that I have encountered the problem and many developers do sometimes forget that must users don't have the same access levels to servers, the knowledge and know how they have, luckily for me they are good at what they do though.

Keep the good work up and I am look forward to a release version of 2.

Don't forget, this is a memory limit per request. It's main purpose is to make sure that scripts don't run away, allocation a TON of resources and kill the server for the other requests. It's meant to be a safety measure, not a measure of how well php can perform on a server. This really shouldn't need to be tweaked, as the chances of a script that isn't flailing wildly out of control using 128 megs is pretty darn rare. I hope that server administrators acknowledge this fact.

For those of you who care about these things, php 5.2.0 changed the default to a slightly more reasonable 16 megs. PHP 5.2.1 upped it to 128 megs. The 2.0 core will work within the confines of the 16 meg limit because 5.2.0 is the minimum requirement (right now a "regular" page render with menus, blog & comments uses about 6 megs -- that's 10 extra megs to play with for modules and stuff).

However, I see no reason to mess with the memory_limit. If you're using enough modules to go over that limit, then chances are that you know what you're doing to fix it, or can at least google it. It's one of those 80/20 issues that's best left to the "advanced" users and not causing potential support issues for us from the "newbies".

Thanks Ted Just thought I would raise the issue as the greater majority of us lesser mortals don't even know how you all get the time to do what you do, never mind the mind blowing know how you need to accomplish it.
I would describe my self as a heavy or advanced user and no stretch to the imagination a coder so rely heavily on you your and the team's knowledge.
Looking forward to V2.

I just want to say thank you for the work you are doing. I am looking forward to 2.0. (As I am no programmer, I cannot provide any help in the process.)

Hi,

I'm always up for improvement... but please keep the adding new pages bit simple! I see this as one of most useful things for my clients as they really, really don't need any knowledge of HTML to do this - and the fact that it automatically adds the page to the menu... well, that just makes life so simple!

Appreciate the work you guys are doing

Cheers,

Tracy

Got a similar error too

It comes true if I make a SVN checkout of current 2.0 with TortoiseSVN ::)

- looks like a wrong path.

I'll just have to remove that external. WYSIWYGs aren't working currently anyway. Tiny is going to need a few changes to work with the 2.0 architecture... and I still haven't made the 2.0 WYSIWYG methods yet on my end. Better do that soon, I guess.

I started this thread well over a year ago. Scary! Means I started 2.0 (then, 1.1) about 18 months ago.

Good news, though. After my holiday and a few weeks of work, I'm back on the 2.0 wagon. Also, I've managed to get calguy to take time to help the cause as well. There is still a lot to be done, but having someone else along for the ride will definitely keep the motivation up.

In the last day, I've finalized the flat permissions handling and started working on content attributes. In addition, I'm writing a subsystem that allow any object to have attributes. This means when it comes time to extend the user handling so we have features more similar to what FrontEndUsers does, it'll be easier to accomplish because the data handling aspect will "just work".

I'll try to keep you guys updated as we go, so you have an idea what cool stuff you can look forward to in the near future. Thanks for your patience on this "all too long" development process.

Thank you Ted, thank you Calguy, thank you all the DevTeam and worldwide contributors.

1.2.x is VERY good. Hence the expectations about 2.x are HIGH.
I wish you the best for releasing 2.0.
