Magento

I was doing some work on my store yesterday, adding some products and other basic changes, and everything was working fine.  I even checked the site again a few hours later from a different computer but made no changes.

Today when I visit both the frontend and admin URLs, I am getting a blank screen.  If I hit refresh a few times in the browser, I get this message (intermittently):

Fatal error: Cannot access protected property Varien_Event_Collection::$_events in /home/yogarcom/public_html/dev/lib/Varien/Event/Collection.php on line 53

I saw a somewhat related error in a post about installation, but this store is not a new install.  I tried changing the memory values in .htaccess as recommended in that thread with no luck.

Any ideas?

Assuming this is a memory issue, would it be caused by my memory_limit setting in .htaccess getting overridden by a master value?

This is what I am seeing with phpinfo();:

memory_limit 128M 32M

suhosin.memory_limit 32M 32M

The first column being the local value, and the second column being the master value.

I am hosting this at Crucial, with their lower-end Split-Shared plan.  I assumed it would be enough to run a smaller Magento store.

I’m having the exact same problem except I’m hosted at Media Temple.  I’m on a virtual dedicated server and it is now imperative that I fix this.

Can someone help diagnose?  I don’t know where to start.

You may want to start with your Apache log files - typically located at /usr/local/apache/logs/error_log

Try tailing the log file and then access your site a few times - review any errors generated to the Apache error log for your next step.

Good luck

Here is what my log says:

Also, it is very intermittent.  Comes and goes.  I cannot predict when the site will be up, and when it will be blank.
