Re: Module manager opens like a file to download

Post by didi156 »

I know this is an old thread, but I'me having the same problem right now after a fresh install of version 1.2.5
If I manually change the URL to "mycms/admin/moduleinterface.php" (no idea if that makes sense), I get:

Code: Select all

Fatal error: Call to a member function GetFriendlyName() on a non-object in /var/www/cms/admin/moduleinterface.php on line 120
Any known solution?

Check your httpd error log, there's probably an error in there somewhere, and I'll bet it's an 'out of memory error'.

ModuleManager is a memory pig.

You are perfectly right!
After changing the memory limit from 8M to 16M in "/etc/php5/apache2/php.ini" and doing "/etc/init.d/apache2 reload", it works.
I remember that the web-based installer warned about this limit (8M was stated as min. value, 16M as recommended), but I'm new to webserver administration and needed this hint to track this down.
Thanks!
