Hi,
I try in admin mode to add some pics to my album with batch mode.
With every pictures greater than 700k I get a message similiar to this:
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted at (null):0 (tried to allocate 2048 bytes) in /srv/www/htdocs/modules/coppermine/include/picmgmtbatch.inc.php on line 183

Has anyone a clue what this may be

Yes, this is because the resizing the pics is using more memory than your server allows.

The amount of memory needed is not dependant on the image quality, but ison the image pixel size.  So a large pic, of say 1600 x 1200 may fail even if it has been optimised down to 200kb, whereas a 1mg image, 800 x 600 will be ok.

You can try to get your host to up the allowed memory usage, or reduce the pixel size of the pics.

Thanks !!!!!!!!!!!

Where can I change the allowed memory setting ?
(I'm new to this :-( )
