CMS Made Simple Forums

Hi All
Been a while since I upgraded my CMSMS. Currently using 2.1.6 and trying to upgrade to 2.2.8

System Info & Modules:

CMSMS Version 2.1.6

Installed Modules
AdminSearch 1.0.2
Album 1.11
CMSContentManager 1.1.4
CMSMailer 6.2.14
DesignManager 1.1.1
FileManager 1.5.2
FormBuilder 0.8.1.6
MicroTiny 2.0.3
ModuleManager 2.0.5
Navigator 1.0.3
News 2.50.6
Search 1.50.2

Getting this message in the installer:
'Checking for a sufficient PHP memory limit
Your memory limit value is too low. You had -1, however a minimum of 16M is required, and 32M is recommended'

I have 512mb php memory limit. Confused

My host is IONOS, formerly 1 and 1 Internet.
Installed dozens of CMSMS sites.

I seem to recall having something similar with a One and One client, and had to explicitly set the memory limit in user.ini or php.ini or whatever it was the host used.

Does system info and phpinfo() show the correct limit?

Yeah. I had this problem too on 1&1 server:

This gave me the needed input:
viewtopic.php?f=8&t=79352

In short:

create a "php.ini" file with the content ...

output_buffering = 4096
output_buffering = on
memory_limit = 256M
upload_max_filesize = 100M
max_execution_time = 180
post_max_size = 100M

... and copy it to the uploaded install folder (the folder were you run the update from). Then run the install.

This worked for me when I used the "cmsms-2.2.9.1-install.expanded.zip" for my install.
