I have a WordPress application running on a Xampp over a Windows machine.

Here, arbitrary "out of memory" fatal errors are encountered in file wp-includes/wp-db.php. I checked with my .ini file and found the required configuration as:

max_execution_time=600
memory_limit=2048M
post_max_size=750M

Nothing overriding in wp-config.php as well.

And size of my access log file of Apache is 165 MB and size of error log file of Apache is 2.24 MB.

I believe one or more of the above given detail is the reason behind this random out of memory issue.

What's the correction needed and what could be the issue?

Have you restartet your server after changing memory limit? – Manuel Mannhardt Mar 19 '18 at 07:19
Yes I did restarted it @ManuelMannhardt – OM The Eternity Mar 19 '18 at 07:20
Do you have any modules installed, which could use a lot of memory? Had that problem with Drupal once. If yes or you are not sure, try to disable modules until you dont get memory errors. – Manuel Mannhardt Mar 19 '18 at 07:21
Any hint on where that error occurs, like file and line number? – M. Eriksson Mar 19 '18 at 07:21
@MagnusEriksson the file is wp-includes/wp-db.php – OM The Eternity Mar 19 '18 at 07:23

You should also check the `wp-config.php` file (WP tends to override the php.ini settings) – M. Eriksson Mar 19 '18 at 07:24
@ManuelMannhardt do you mean, apache modules or the wordpress plugins? – OM The Eternity Mar 19 '18 at 07:24
I mean WordPress modules, they tend to make WP (or any CMS/such system as WP really) pretty slow. – Manuel Mannhardt Mar 19 '18 at 07:25
@MagnusEriksson nothing overriding in wp-config.php – OM The Eternity Mar 19 '18 at 07:27
I feel like whenever server goes to log a request in access log file, it has to access the file of 165 MB and 1 lakh 54 thousand line, so is that could be a reason behind? – OM The Eternity Mar 19 '18 at 07:30
Do I have the right values for ini file? depending of each other? – OM The Eternity Mar 19 '18 at 07:32
Apache's access log doesn't affect PHP in that way. – M. Eriksson Mar 19 '18 at 08:24
