Hi All
I'm a newbie to Drupal....with very basic IT/programing ability.
Working in education I was excited by the OpenScholar package (http://drupal.org/project/openscholar) ...downloaded it, and got the installation running...then... at the end it crached...with a message about data overflows -
"Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 453 bytes) in /home/unigaiab/public_html/Drupal/includes/database.mysql-common.inc on line 34"
That line is actually checking for MySQL version number...but my server has MySQL 5.0.92... which should be enough. I contacted the people at OpenScholar and they suggested it was a memory issue and suggested I add
"ini_set('memory_limit', '256M');" into the setttings.php file. That worked!!!!
But had trouble understanding OpenScholar (newbie to Drupal) and its more sophisticated than I need..... so installed a barebones Drupal6 (6.20) installation... and started adding modules and playing around... everything working fine. Having fun.... although a steep learning curve !
Now I can across the Administration Menu module (6.x-1.6)...sounds great....uploaded it into /modules..... enabled it and on save... got the message
"Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 3355783 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 467 bytes) in /home/unigaiab/public_html/Drupal/includes/database.mysql-common.inc on line 34"
Now I remember that OpenScholar uses Administration Menu module !!!!! Humm...this error comes up whenever I install or enable Administration Menu !!!
Soooo.....inserted the ini_set line into the Drupal6 default/settings.php......and that broke the system entirely!!!!!
OK....try something else.....uploaded the newer Administration Menu (6.x-3.0-alpha4).. loaded it and restarted Drupal6.....started....disabled Admin Menu .......re-enabled Admin Menu......and reloaded the page.... the Admin Menu is there and seems to be functioning....only now I have the warnings....
" user warning: Table 'unigaiab_drupal6.cache_admin_menu' doesn't exist query: UPDATE cache_admin_menu SET data = '4f3e1cea68a46492fc96922627ac6a1e', created = 1304045028, expire = 0, headers = '', serialized = 0 WHERE cid = 'admin_menu:1:en' in /home/unigaiab/public_html/Drupal6/includes/cache.inc on line 109.
user warning: Table 'unigaiab_drupal6.cache_admin_menu' doesn't exist query: SELECT data, created, headers, expire, serialized FROM cache_admin_menu WHERE cid = 'admin_menu:1:en' in /home/unigaiab/public_html/Drupal6/includes/cache.inc on line 26."
Sorry for the long explanation.
In summary...Admin Menu (1.6) breaks my system......when loaded through two different sources into two different applications....hummmm! Admin Menu 3.0-alpha4...is sort of running !
And, now... how to resolve these warning messages that are persisting.
Thanks in Advance

PS - just out of mischief....I deleted the "ini_set =.... 256M" line out of settings.php again and put it back into the Drupal6 files ... where Admin Menu 3.0-alpha4 is enabled....... it works.....but I still have those warnings. So...the problem is in Admin Menu 1.6 !!!!!
