some how I get memory_limit error. PHP memory_limit was 128M. I set this to 256M but still fatal error memory_limit.

What’s the exact error message?

white screen with HTTP 500. in Apache log I found memory_limit error. 128 M memory limit was set. I double this to 256M and it still shows white screen (HTTP 500) and memory_limit error in log file

in the github I see additional “use Piwik\Common;” is added. It works now
