Error 500 with one Lemmy group, then gone


!Friendica Admins Just a note about an odd behavior on my instance (2024.12), I used to browse the Lemmy group programming.dev/c/programmer_h…. Then out of nowhere it provoke error 500, even after a full instance restart.

app [ALERT]: Fatal Error (E_ERROR): Allowed memory size of 536870912 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 8192 bytes) {"code":1,"message":"Allowed memory size
of 536870912 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 8192 bytes)","file":"/var/www/html/src/Content/Conversation.php","line":976,"trace":null} - {"file":null,"line":null,"function":
null,"request-id":"67b9a0b78b4fb","stack":"ErrorHandler::handleFatalError","uid":"b72782","process_id":45}

I unsubscribed and subscribed to the group: error is gone 🤷‍♂️

That looks to me like the system wanted to display a discussion that contained too many entries. There is an admin setting where you can set the maximum number of posts per page. When you geht that message the next time, go to the settings, half the value and try again.

Currious, it's the default value at 40. I lower that to 20 now, thanks for the suggestion.
