Hi

I have to import a big website in wordpress (about 400gb with a 1.5gb database) from webmin to plesk. I'm using the plesk site import extension but when it scans the content after about half an hour I get the error: ERROR: Allowed memory size of 268435456 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 4096 bytes) (SiteInfo.php:30).

I've already tried to increase the plesk memory_limit parameter from vi /usr/local/psa/admin/conf/php.ini but it doesn't work.

I also tried to increase it in the site to import into the wp-config.php file but it still doesn't work.
I also tried from plesk > domains > php > memory_limit but it doesn't work the same.

What can I do? thanks
 
Judging by the error it looks like the memory limit might still be 256 MB. Have you restarted sw-engine and sw-cp-server after editing the php.ini file please?
