Fatal error in installing the component

[ramyac]

Hi
when i try to install the extension component ArtForms I am getting the following error message
"
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 512 bytes) in C:\Program Files\VertrigoServ\www\Joomla\includes\domit\xml_domit_lite_parser.php on line 135 "

I tried to increase the memory_limit variable in php.ini to 64M as I am working in localhost.

Please help in this, I really dont know wat to do.

Thanks in advance

Two things. First there can be several copies of php.ini on your installation but Joomla is only referencing one of them. Make sure you increased the memory limit in the one that counts. Check Joomla site information on the backend to find out which one it references.
Second. Restart apache after the change.
