Sounds like you are on a Windows server maybe, I know nothing about Windows. You might leave the php.dat file alone and change it in settings.php. I wasn't saying that setting it in settings.php wouldn't work, just that you shouldn't set it in more than one place.

Going to the status page will always tell you if your efforts have been successful.

Kevin,

You only want to set this in ONE place. Otherwise, you won't know what overrides what and which setting is authoritative.

So...
Set memory limit in only one place, remove any other custom code other than in once place.

Set it for 96MB minimum

Go to the "Status" page to confirm the amount of memory available to your installation ( at /admin/reports/status)

Report back,

I have also read that you can go to the setting.php file and add a line of code... i have done this also have added a line of code in the htaccess file aswell but only to 32MB should I up the size in these files aswell?

Thanks Jamie for that reference; that's a good docs page.

But Kevin, don't be confused by the example. I think that doc was written when most shared hosts defaulted to 8MB or 16MB and so upping it to 32MB made a difference. Given the error message you reported, you already have 32MB of available memory. But it still isn't surprising that you get the error, depending on what version of Drupal you are using and what modules you have installed. I have my own server and my master php.ini is for accounts to have 128MB of memory available for Drupal.

I am having trouble when working with drupal actually up on the server. Everytime I save something it gives me this error.

"Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 45 bytes) in /data/16/1/19/132/1508295/user/1622796/htdocs/wordpress/sewerratracing/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 160"

it seems to be a different path every time but the same message.
