Question
App Platform Increase PHP LIMIT MEMORY LIMIT
- Posted on April 18, 2024
- App Platform
Asked by Merk
Hi, we’re using Symfony on one of our digital app platform instance. We have a long running process that requires the increase of the php memory limit. Upon checking the /app/.heroku/php/etc/php/php.ini , it always resets back the memory_limit to 128M which is not ideal for processing async long running process.
I already tried the following:
PHP_INI_MEMORY_LIMITto 1024M on the environment variable- Added the
memory_limit=1024Mon my .user.ini file (The other configurations are working like themax_execution_timeandpost_max_sizebut I don’t know why thememory_limit=1024Mis not picking up.
The quick fix for now that I did was to manually update the memory_limit after deployment but it is cumbersome since I need to do it after deployment.
Thank you in advance!

Hi there,
This is quite interesting, I’ve just tested this and it seems to be working as expected with a
.user.inifile:I’ve just verified this with a demo project that I have here:
Can you also confirm if your app container that you are using has more than 1GB of memory?
Best,
Bobby
