The question:
I am trying to setup Magento 2.0 (community) in a WAMP server and I am getting the error below all the time while I run the command for deploy the assets static due to symlink issues at Windows environments:
php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 64 bytes) in C:wampwwwmagentovendoroyejorgeless.phplibLessVisitorprocessExtends.php on line 445
I have setup memory_limit as -1 (no limit) but this takes no changes. I don’t know what else to do in this case since the issue goes beyond my PHP knowledge and setting that value to no limit should do the job unless I need to install something else to get this working. Any advices? Any workaround?
The Solutions:
Below are the methods you can try. The first solution is probably the best. Try others if the first one doesn’t work. Senior developers aren’t just copying/pasting – they read the methods carefully & apply them wisely to each case.
Method 1
quick solution add memory size in the command :
php -dmemory_limit=6G bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy
change 6G to what you want
Method 2
In dev mode I managed to solve this issue by running the following command:
rm -rf pub/static/* var/di var/generation var/cache var/page_cache
Method 3
Increase the memory limit to update .php.ini file
If you have access to your php.ini file or can create one in the root, you can globally increase your allocated memory.
;adjust memory limit
memory_limit = 6G
max_execution_time = 36000
max_input_time = 36000
If you not want to update .php.ini file then use below command
php -dmemory_limit=6G bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy
