Help Please...I can't backup my database

[TammyB]

When I try to backup my database from the 4images control panel, I'm getting a bunch of php script and this:

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 10240 bytes) in /home/ladieb/public_html/gallery/includes/db_utils.php on line 165

What can I do to fix this? I'm running the latest version of 4images.

Thanks,
Tammy

That's the memory_limit setting of PHP. If you have access to the php.ini, change it to 16 MB e.g.
... or ask your hoster to do it...
... or use a tool like phpmyadmin or mysqldumper...

I have PHPMYAdmin in my cpanel, but I have no idea how to use it. I guess I'll drop an email to my server/host..thanks a bunch.
