Fatal error: Out of memory in cpanel horde

[johnburk]

When trying to open an attachement I get the following error in the cPanel horde webmail.

Fatal error: Out of memory (allocated 46399488) (tried to allocate 17309701 bytes) in /usr/local/cpanel/base/horde/lib/Horde/MIME/Part.php on line 1157

This is strange because the allocated memory according to this error is 45M and the file is 17M. Does anyone know why this happens and if it something that can be fixed within cPanel/WHM?

The php.ini limit is set to 256M

and

grep -i rlimit /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf

shows 512

Solution
If you have had this problem, then most forums will tell you to look at php.ini of httpd.conf, but that does not solve the problem in this case.

WHM -> Tweak Settings > The maximum memory a cPanel process can use before it is killed off.

Default is 256M and you can set it to a higher value. This is the solution.

What did you change it to that worked for you?

In my case I set it so 512M and that did the job.

I don't have this is Horde what ever that is but I get a similar error uploading plugins to wordpress blogs hosted under cPanel. It would seem to me that the errors are the same. I increased the process limit to 512, but that didn't solve it. So I have to stop & restart something?

Am I dealing with the same error issue or is mine different?

It obviously restarted a number of Daemons when I selected save changes, but I still get the error.

Make sure your php.ini memory limit is also 512M

Individual cPAddon installations such as WordPress (those installed using cPanel > Site Software) are bound by either the global php.ini at /usr/local/lib/php.ini or the account's individual php.ini (/home/username/public_html or /home/username/public_html/wordpressfoldername). These do not use the same php.ini as the webmail programs, since webmail is bound by the cPanel process memory limits instead. This means that increasing the Tweak Setting mentioned wouldn't work for WordPress hitting a limit.
