I have backlight 3.1.3 installed and have been uploading files to various albums. I have a few files that I can’t upload and which give the error:
“The photo could not be uploaded: Unexpected error: Allowed memory size of 268435456 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 20480 bytes) in ImageResizer.php on line 52”
When this happens, the file is in a group (of 12 or so) being uploaded together. I try just that file by itself and it still fails. From today, one file was 15MB and one was 21MB. I have been uploading larger files without any problem, so I don’t think it’s file size.
The upload appears to be working fine, and it’s only at the very end, when it got to 100%, that the error appears
All of the JPEGs were saved by Photoshop. I can’t think of anything remarkable or different about the files that fail.
Any clues why this failure occurs? Is there a workaround I could try?
Many thanks
