I am trying to install SS for the first time. Everything checks out for the install, but as it installs I get the following error:

# Creating 'mysite/_config.php'...
# Creating '.htaccess' file...
# Building database schema...

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 86 bytes) in /home/steveell/public_html/ss/sapphire/forms/LookupField.php on line 44

Any ideas?

My bad. I entered this post as I was searching for an answer. So it looks like I am pushing the php limit of 32mb. I am on a shared host so I can't change this through php.ini. Can I fix this through .htaccess? I tried adding ini_set('memory_limit', '64M'); to the htaccess, but when I try to install it comes up with a blank screen.

I fixed it. I didn't have it inside the php tag.
