Magento 2 – Allowed Memory exhausted error

Easy solution is using Magento 2 CLI and adding memory limit inside command.

For Compilation:

php -dmemory_limit=3G bin/magento setup:di:compile

For Content Deployment:

php -dmemory_limit=3G bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy

You can change to more value if your problem is not resolved.

where 3G = 3 GigaBytes

You can also set memory_limit in your php.ini file then you don’t need to define every time in the command.

memory_limit = 3G
