I am working on word press. I need to increase the memory so added the following line to my htaccess file
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
php_value memory_limit 64M
my sample php page
but it throws the 500 internal server error. what is the problem here..
In your .htaccess you can add:
PHP 5.x
PHP 7.x
If page breaks again, then you are using PHP as mod_php in apache, but error is due to something else.
If page does not break, then you are using PHP as CGI module and therefore cannot use php values - in the link I've provided might be solution but I'm not sure you will be able to apply it.
