Hi,

Sorry for late reply to this,

I have checked in your site and tried to upload that image file you provided, it seems like I hitting this error :

<b>Fatal error</b>:  Out of memory (allocated 132382720) (tried to allocate 8992 bytes) in <b>JoomlaFolder/administrator/components/com_easysocial/includes/image/adapters/asido/class.driver.gd.php</b> on line <b>337</b><br />

Can you temporary increase your php memory_limit to 256MB and try again and see how it goes?

Hello

Thanks for the explanation, I should have seen this myself! I also tried rotating the image using the photo edit feature in ES and I (logically) get the same error message.

The problem is I am on a shared hosting (1&1, highest pack). Memory limit is set to 120M and cannot be changed. Probably some of your other customers are in the same situation, and may have the same issue, especially considering that this photo is not very big (about 9MP).

Rotation seems to take a lot of memory. One solution would be to resize the image before rotating it, instead of after. Rotating a smaller image whould then work. Maybe you should consider this for a coming ES version...

For now I think I have no other solution but disabling EXIF and tell my users to rotate their photos before uploading them. Or change from shared to dedicated hosting

Regards

Hello Altitudes,

Thanks for the heads up on this issue. I will forward this to our developers and see if they can do something about it. Thank you for your kind feedback
