I'm getting the allowed memory error also, but at line 297 in file.php. Using 1.5 extractor, Trying to do 1.5.9 to 1.5.17 update.

I opened file.php in Coda, but I don't see anything in there that looks useful to change (I'm a true novice so I may not really know what I'm look for).

Help would be greatly appreciated.

On another of my sites, the update manager worked fine from .15 to .17

I have installed update manager on nine sites. Seven of the sites worked fine. Two other sites took the installation of update manager but fail to update when it was executed. I get error messages at step 3:
failed to write entry, and
failed to extract archive.

Does anyone have any information.

All sites are served by the same XServe. All sites are using PHP5. I have compared settings for sites that work and those that do not, I cannot find any discrepancies in the Global Configuration.

Furthermore, when I log out of administrator and log back in on one of problem sites, It shows version 1.5.17 (the latest at this time). The other site fails to show update.

OK so it is Monday Morning and I tried again to update the last of 10 sites with update manager. I uninstalled the update manager and reinstalled it. I went through the motions of updating. I got the messages, "unable to write entry", and "failed to extract archive" during step three. When I navigated away and back to try again I got no update found and the version in the corner was up to 1.5.18 (current version).

It appears all my sites are now up-to-date. Next version update will be the test.

My problem seems to have fixed itself.

Thanks,

Jeff :)

you might have a permissions issue. I have issues on my dedicated server because of the php-set in my apache file open_base restircion.

so to fix this you can chmod 775 or 777 httpdocs folder.
and perhaps even with the -R to recurs into all sub folders.

also on linux machines, sometimes that php/apache cant write to a file due to owner ship. some times, plesk/apache needs apache:apache either way. a chmod 777 -R httpdocs should allow it to work. unless of coarse, its an entirely different issue.

I'm having this error on two sites, and not on a whole bunch of others. Both of the sites that fail are installed in subdirectories of the main domain, which is unlikely to be a coincidence. Is this a common theme, perhaps?

Any solution?
