How to Increase PHP Memory Limit in Virtualmin

The topic of “How to increase PHP memory limit in Virtualmin or Webmin will be covered in this article to familiarise you with the interface of a function.

As we can do on the cPanel interface to do changes we want are pretty simple to change and easy to find. However, in the case of Virtualmin or Webmin which is similar to WHM, even the basic configuration finding is a little difficult to find if a user gets familiarized with the cPanel interface. But that’s not the end at all. Once we use it, everything will get familiarized.

Let’s get into the steps involved.

 

Methods to Increase the PHP memory limit in Virtualmin:

  1. Assigned PHP configuration.
  2. Assigned PHP configuration folder.
  3. Through .User.ini file.

 

Change 1: Assigned PHP configuration

Step A: Login to Virtualmin for your domain using domainaname:10000. For example, if the domain name is article.com, then article.com:10000. If you can’t log in via Virtualmin, get the access to Webmin URL and log in with your domain credentials.

Incase if you want to change the password, you can reset the password inside your Virtualmin account under change password.
