    Stopping Drupal Allowed Memory Size Exhausted Errors in Bluehost

    Drupal uses up alot of default PHP memory for every Module that you install, and you may be getting frustrated over Allowed Memory size Exhausted Errors.  In Bluehost you can get around the problem by going to your public_html directory and changing the php.ini file.

    Look for the line that says

    memory_limit 12M

    or something like that, change the 12M to 64M or higher (mines 512M) only set it really high if you have alot of modules.

    You also have to restart the server but you can’t do it without SSH access and Bluehost tech support usually don’t like doing it, so a workaround is in your Bluehost Control panel under the PHP options enable PHP Fast CGI and your PHP.ini changes will take effect.  If PHP fast CGI is already set change it to a different mode.

    Hope that helps anyone with my same problems.
