Recursive error in PHP

Question

I am trying to migrate a database from an old XP machine to a new Synology DS213. I successfuly imported the database and mirrored permissions, but am having trouble actually getting the website to work. I run out of memory no matter how high I raise the max memory limit.

I was able to install the xdebug extention to help me debug. I have tryied I quickly run out of memory with the following error: (this is just the first couple of lines)

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 268435456 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 70987243 bytes) in /volume1/web/includes/phpFunctions.php on line 203 Call Stack: 0.0011 324280 1. {main}() /volume1/web/index.php:0 0.0024 324728 2. require('/volume1/web/includes/phpFunctions.php') /volume1/web/index.php:14 0.0646 337424 3. phpMySQL->dbQuery() /volume1/web/includes/phpFunctions.php:35 0.0653 337568 4. phpMySQL->stopProcess() /volume1/web/includes/db/mySQL.php:69 0.0655 337968 5. myErrorHandler() /volume1/web/includes/db/mySQL.php:254 0.0662 343400 6. raiseError() /volume1/web/includes/phpFunctions.php:160 0.0670 344608 7. phpMySQL->dbQuery() /volume1/web/includes/phpFunctions.php:209 0.0678 345792 8

I am at a loss. I don't expect anyone to solve it for me, but hopefully point me in the right direction to learn more about the errors.

Try add this line to your script (possibly in index.php) -

@ini_set('memory_limit', '1G');

If this doesn't work then try import database again in this way - first import 2/3 table then again next 2/3 table and so on and also make sure that there is no infinite loop(s).
