Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 16777216 bytes exhausted ...

Hello!

Whne trying to submit a spammer I get the following message:

"Add a Spammer

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 16777216 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 15990872 bytes) in /home/stopforu/public_html/inc/functions.php on line 65"

I was just about to post exactly the same error.

I sucessfully added three and it choked on the fourth addition.

Sounds like a bug in the SFS PHP code.  Why would it need to allocate 16 megs of memory to add a spammer?

Is it trying to read the entire database using a buffered query?

I think we might need to restart the webserver.  Its a memory issue this side but Ill have to poke Russ to get that done as I dont have that level of access to the server.

Could someone please PM me with the details they tried to add so I can check the code?

Thanks

I think I found the problem, it was due to an external website we used to get a IP->country code.  It was down (died a death and reports server error), which killed our script.  Ive fixed it for now, so please start adding data again and psot back if you experience any problems

I promise I'm not a spammer but I am having trouble submitting data today. 

I posted in the Support section, then found this thread

http://www.stopforumspam.com/forum/view … 2935#p2935

so I'm sort of here 3 times with two little problems, none of them quite as described, though I did see that one I submitted successfully is coming up blank for the country. 

Apologies for the multiple posts!
