I just had the same error

I just uploaded 3 images and I cannot open the image.  Same error message as above.  Any suggestions.

Yup I'm getting the same

Yup I'm getting the same again today too... I uploaded an image I had processed in the past again to double check.  I'm pretty confident it's not me....

Frustrating! VPHOT is a very simple / fast workflow for me - but it needs to work consitently...

Out of Memory Issues

Hi James and Mike et al:

Have you read the recent lengthy forum thread labeled "Regular VPhot Users - Need Your Help!"? It discusses the "out of memory" issue, causes and possible fixes.

Have you deleted any of your VPhot images that have already been processed?

The administrators (2) do work to reduce the number of such memory problems but it is a frequent battle as use, number of images and size of images increases.

There are some clear, but not necessarily agreed upon, ways to resolve the problem. We are pursuing them but it is always helpful for users to assist by deleting their processed images from their own list.

Thanks for your help.

VPhot memory problems

Out of Memory problems relates to images too large to handle.

One way to help is to make sure they are not in floating point.

I'll investigate if we can increase the memory allocation on the server since I know with CMOS and DSLR images on their way we will be pushing the memory limit pretty hard.
