After Effects Unable to Allocate Enough Memory to Render Current Frame/ MeshWarp problem.

Hello,
I am currently working with 17 layers in AE- CC 2014.1.1 (13.1.1) Most of the layers have multiple effects, including the "Mesh Warp,"- which happened to have been freezing my computer constantly. I finally had to change computers... First, I was unable to render these layers, because there is not enough memory space. So I went back to editing. After adding a couple of video layers, I went to play back, and got the above message: "After Effects Unable to Allocate Enough Memory to Render Current Frame"
I changed my "cache" folder to my external hard drive. I also upped the cache space from 23MB to 50MB. But I am still getting this error.
In terms of the Mesh warp: Once i brought the effect to the video file, and tried to move the grid, I got the rainbow spinny ball. It went away after a while. As soon as I clicked on ANYTHING- i got the wheel again. This continued until I "Forced Quit." I don't know what thats about...
This is the info for the Composition Settings/ computer I am working on. i am trying to give as much information as possible. This is for my Senior Thesis! Can anyone please help me ASAP?
Best,
Julia

What are these layers you're working with? What size? What format? What Codec? What color space?
What happens if you turn on Render Multiple Frames Simultaneously (reserving at least one core for other programs)?

I assume you mean GB, not MB...
What happens if you save to version 12 and try to work on it there? (If you don't have an older version installed, try it: Creative Cloud Help | Install, update, or uninstall apps)
Have you tried rebooting your machine recently? Do other programs/apps//software run normally?

Unable to allocate enough memory to render the current frame

I am a bit of a novice at AE, just starting to learn. I have googled this, searched these forums and tried all I can think of. No luck. SO I will ask here.
I bought this AE file http://videohive.net/item/-earth-zoom-customize/6451983
Here is the error message I get when trying to render
After Effects error: Unable to allocate enough memory to render the current frame (18172 x 18172 @ 8 bpc). Either decrease the memory requirements for the rendering of this frame, or install more RAM. (12805). For more information, see adobe.com/learn_ae_mem (7 :: 66)
I even tried to render the project without making any changes. No luck
My info:
Macbook pro 15” Mid 2012
OSX 10.9.2
Processor 2.6 ghz intel core i7
Memory: 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Graphics NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 1024 MB
Running AE CC 12.2.1.5
First thought, Is my laptop inadequate for this type of work?
When it says - (18172 x 18172 @ 8 bpc) is that the resolution it's trying to output? The project is 6 seconds long and 1920x1080 resolution.
I can render it at half resolution, but not at the 1080 res.
Thanks for your help.

Purged cache, set it to purge every 5 frames ... no luck. Purge every frame ... no luck.
I tried disabling different parts of the clip to render. No luck until I disabled the inner shadow of the globe, and it seems to work.
What should your purge setting be normally for this ap? I think it was set to "0". SHould I move it back to 0?
Thanks for your help.

Dreaded "Unable To Allocate Enough Memory To Render" error message.

Processor: 2.6 Ghz Intel Core i7

My composition windows are 1920x1080 and I'm using 23.976 fps
Here are my error messages, and screenshots of my settings: https://www.flickr.com/photos/83773582@N00/17292326725/
Background
The composition that includes assets that seem to be causing the problem is in 3D, with a camera. There's a portion where the camera zooms in, which causes a few of the 1920X1080 assets to extend beyond the composition window. Maybe this is the problem? However, I have found that these error messages come up at different frames at different times. Sometimes they render ok, sometimes they don't. But I can't get a full render of the entire allotted render space.
I wasn't having any problems until I applied CC Light Burst 2.5 to one of my assets yesterday, accidentally typing in a number for the intensity and ray length that was HUGE. This caused after effects to freeze, although I was able to save. I went back into after effects and deleted the CC Light Burst Effect from that particular asset, but am still having render problems.
My questions:
1. A lot of these error messages are gibberish to me. Does anyone know if there is a way to interpret these error messages to locate the problem within my After Effects project quickly?
2. If it turns out that the CC Light Burst 2.5 effect was the problem that kicked this all off, while I have to my knowledge deleted this effect from the layer I had it placed on, could it still somehow be active?
3. Is there a way to search for an effect and see which layers in your composition are currently utilizing that effect? Maybe I placed the CC Light Burst on another layer by accident and didn't realize it.
Thanks for the support guys. This forum is a life-saver!

I don't know who labeled your post as a "correct answer". Yes, you did indeed correctly answer one of my questions, but the heart of the matter was left unsolved.
Nevertheless, Adobe After Effects Version 13.2.0.49 was the problem. Stupid updates wasting my time and money. Annoying.
Reverting to 13.0.0.214 made everything work like a charm. Adobe After Effects: don't lie to me and tell me I have memory problems, when it's your issue. Thanks for costing me a few hundred bucks. God I love being on a high horse. I'm bitter and entitled. Deal with it.

AE CC 2014 - Error: Unable to allocate enough memory to render the current frame 7 :: 66

Hello,
AE CC 2014 13.0.2
Error while rendering a 3840 x 2160 Quicktime movie in AE CC 2014. Always gets to about 16 seconds of the 30 second render and fails. One layer in the animation is 5000 x 5000, big but certainly not a problem in the past with AE CC and 64GB of ram.
Have not had this problem on AE CC or my previous Mac Pro.
Current MAC PRO:
Tried adjusting ram, purging, setting "clear frames" under the secret menu. Disk cache set to 128GB.
Here are a few more strange things:
If I have MAX ram set to 52 GB how is AE using 100% of 64 GB?

OK. So, here's what happened in AE CC 12.2.1.5 using my 5000 x 5000 Quicktime source files in the project. Failed. Error 7 :: 66 again.
Happened at approximately the same time 16:06 of 30:00.
I watched at RAM data at the bottom as it rendered. The % kept climbing as it rendered. When it got to 80-82% of 64GB it leveled off, then it would go from 82% to 81% to 80% then back up to 81%. Looked like AE was regulating the amount of RAM used. But it steadily kept rendering with very little slowing. Then around 12 seconds (comp time) it went past 82% and climbed all the way to 100% of 64GB RAM and failed. Seems to do the same in AE CC 2014 13.0.2.
3000 x 3000 source Quicktimes work ok and don't go past the regulated % of RAM. Seems strange and a shame though. Obviously AE can handle the large resolution source video files. If I was rendering a 10 second file movie I'd be golden and the error would most likely never happen. We are doing lots of 4K for up coming TV projects so the higher resolutions will be very important.
Thoughts?
Any other tests I can run to help sort this out?

Livetype "Not enough memory to render a frame"

I'm doing some really easy (fade in, fade out) text for an instructional video in Livetype. My first problem was nesting the .ipr files in final cut and rendering. When I rendered and compressed to DVD one frame of each 7 second clip flashed
"unrendered" So naturally I tried to go back in Livetype and render each text sequence individually. Now it's giving me an error "Not enough memory to render a frame"? Now my machine has 8GBs of memory and I've got 80+GB of hard drive space to work with. Can anyone help me out here?

Sorry, guys, never seen this error in LT.
Mac error boxes are rarely accurate, they're just thrown up by some weird parsing routine, so, unless you can actually feel like the error is relevant, most of us don't bother trying to debug based on the box's description.
I hope you find a solution and please come back to close the thread if you do. It will be very helpful for future "out of memory" searches.

ORA-29855 - Unable to allocate shared memory

Hi,
We are encountering troubles (unable to allocate shared memory) while indexes creation. We tried to increase the share_size_memory (actually 52 mb) but this had no effect on this error. The Oracle error code is ORA-29855.
The database is version 8.1.7, hosted on a Linux machine (RedHat 7.2) with 512 mb of memory. The code used for the index creation works fine on other machines (code from 9iAS Wireless installation) running with Windows 2000 as operation system.
Any help or comment will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Fabrice Clari.
The error message is:
java.sql.SQLException: ORA-29855: error occurred in the execution of ODCIINDEXCREATE routine
ORA-13200: internal error [ROWID:AAAGDwAAFAAAAvjAAA] in spatial indexing.
ORA-13206: internal error [] while creating the spatial index
ORA-13011: value is out of range
ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [kope2ucoll700], [], [], [], [], [], [], []
ORA-04031: unable to allocate 16396 bytes of shared memory ("large pool","unknown object","koh-kghu sessi","kolcalm coll")
ORA-06512: at "MDSYS.SDO_INDEX_METHOD", line 8
ORA-06512: at line 1

Which portion of shared memory did you increase? The error indicates you need to increase large_pool_size. It seems you may also have other problems since you have several errors, and this only relates to the ORA-04031 error.

I am getting the following error "Conversion Error: filter DLL couldn't allocate enough memory:".
Am I missing any settings or should i allocate the memory anywhere?

After Effects Error: Keylight out of memory (4)

After Effects CS4 keeps crapping out on me, and won't allow me to render my projects. I keep getting the message, "After Effects Error: Keylight out of memory (4)"
I'm running a brand new IMac 3.4 GHz Intel Core I7 (which I understand gives me virtually 8 cores), and I have 8 GB of Ram.
I've tried with multi-frame processing enabled, and dissabled and the same thing. When I tried with the mulit-frame enabled I selected allow 4 CPU's Free and allow 6CPU's free, and still the same results. Any help would be greatly apprecicated.
Thanks!

Since you run AE 9, it's probably your footage. Okay, it's the most likely cause, at least. Here's a copy 'n paste response I used to use a LOT on the Creative COW:
Dave's Stock Answer #1:
If the footage you imported into AE is any kind of the following -- footage in an HDV acquisition codec, MPEG1, MPEG2, AVCHD, mp4, mts, m2t, H.261 or H.264 -- you need to convert it to a different codec.
These kinds of footage use temporal, or interframe compression. They have keyframes at regular intervals, containing complete frame information. However, the frames in between do NOT have complete information. Interframe codecs toss out duplicated information.
In order to maintain peak rendering efficiency, AE needs complete information for each and every frame. But because these kinds of footage contain only partial information, AE freaks out, resulting in a wide variety of problems.
I'm a Mac guy, so I like to convert to Quicktime movies in the Animation or PNG codecs; both are lossless. I'll

SAP DBTech JDBC: [4]: cannot allocate enough memory: Out of memory

Hello,
I am currently experiencing this error when making request to the Hana database via jdbc : SAP DBTech JDBC: [4]: cannot allocate enough memory: Out of memory
I guess I am running out of space, so I wanted to delete some data from unused tables. The problem is that I cannot connect with Studio anymore "Error when connecting to system".
Is there another way to delete data from some tables when getting this particular error ?
Does anyone experienced such a situation ?
Thank you,
Benoît

Hi Benoit,
Please plan to migrate to the latest version from Rev 38 before 1 year license expires in Rev 38 in Oct 2013. You need to export your content and import in the latest version.
As you are aware, a lot of bugs are fixed between Rev 38 and the newer releases along with new SPS5 features and HANA One is adding new web based management features in each HANA One release which does not need SSH to stop|start HANA as it can be done in browser starting in Rev 52 (check out The specified item was not found.for additional info). Please stay tuned for the upcoming version which will have additional management features to manage your instance.
Thanks,
Swapan

After Effects unable to render error -1610153464

I use Adobe CS6. Today, I upgraded to CC. I work on a MacBook Pro with 8GB RAM, and the latest OS X, Mountain Lion. Here's my dilemma.
Although I own the CS6 Master Collection, I have never used After Effects. So, I am an AE newbie. For years I have mainly used the other apps, PhotoShop, Illustrator, Dreamweaver, Flash, InDesign, etc.
I wanted to prepare a presentation for my company. I purchased an After Effects template that I liked. http://videohive.net/item/new-company-presentation/5182042
When I opened the template I received the following message: "After Effects: this project must be converted from version 9.0 (Windows) and will open as an untitled project. The original file swill be unchanged."
After quite some time creating and preparing all my samples in a Quicktime movies I was ready to customize the AE template.
Following the AE template author's instructions I was able to customize the template, editing text, importing my movies. When I added the "Final Comp" to the Render Cue, and then started rendering, I immediately got the following error: "After Effects error: Rendering error while writing to file '/Users/...Final Comp.mov'. An output device module failed. The file may be damaged or corrupt. (-1610153464)"
I tried rendering the original unedited file. Same error.
I tried researching solutions.
I turn off my firewall. "blockage in the communication between After Effects and the Adobe QT32 Server." http://blogs.adobe.com/aftereffects/2011/02/troubleshooting-quicktime-errors-with-after-ef fects.html
I tried removing a third-party Quicktime importer components. http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/multi/startup-screen-hangs-premiere-after.html
I tried exporting the file from AE to Premier Pro. But, got the following message when opening the file in Premier:
"The preset is used by one or more sequences in this project requires third-party components that could not be located. These sequences will be modified to use a custom sequence setting instead. To continue editing using the original preset, quit the application without saving the project, then install any third-party components that are required and reopen the project." Note: The author of the AE template said that no external plug-ins were used, that everything was created in AE.
Also, when opening the file in Premier, a "Load Project" window open listing the following:
"Video filter missing: AE.ADBE Color Control
"Video filter missing: AE.ADBE Fill
"Video filter missing: AE.ADBE Slider Control"
I attempted to do a render from Premier anyway. But, got the following error: "Could not connect to Adobe After Effects. Please verify that Adobe After Effects and Adobe Dynamic Link components are installed." I checked, They are!
I finally "bit the bullet" and upgrade to, and installed the Creative Cloud version of After Effects hoping that this may be a solution.
Today, I installed After Affects CC. This time when I began the render, AE started to render. Then, after a couple seconds of video being generated the same errors reappeared!
Can anyone offer some guidance as to how I can get this resolved?

Today, I created a whole new project. Imported an Adobe Illustrator file with five layers. One background layer, the rest were text layers. The entire project is 11 seconds. I made some minor effects to the text in After Effects, position, and opacity. Went to render it, and the same error appeared.
I have the error log file if it will help.
Please help.

Why is my after effects unable to render?

Hi! I am currently rendering a video in After Effects CS6. Once it reaches around 1,330 frames for some reason it stops and the percentage of ram usage goes up from 11% to 49%. Please help!
Now I am also getting a error saying: After Effects error: Rendering error while writing to file

HI, I am running after effects CC on window 8 whenever I render a video the audio is misplaced. does everyone know whats going on?

Nope. We don't even know what you mean by "misplaced".
Is it not there?
Is the audio somewhere else in a different folder?
Is the audio there, but leads or follows the video by a certain amount?
Other things:
Have you activated the audio checkbox in the Output Module when you add the comp ro the Render Queue?
Is there audio present in your comp when you RAM Preview?

After Effects says I need to have at least two frames to render a ram preview. I multiple frames. Ho

After Effects says I need to have at least two frames to render a ram preview. I multiple frames. How do I make it ram preview?

After Effects CS5 crashes on Launch 'memory to intialize PSL'?

Just installed a trail version of AE CS5 on one mac, works fine (renders big comps and quick). Then installed it on another machine, but when I try and launch CS5, it crashes with the message "not enough memory to initialize PSL (83:3)".
Both Macs are 2x2.8GHz Quad-Cores running OS 10.5.8. Both have around 90gbs of free space, the one that does launch CS5 has 4gbs of ram and the one that won't launch CS5 has 16gbs of ram!
Anyone got any ideas or experiencing the same?
Cheers

I experienced the exact same issue. I had received some client files in cs5 that needed editing....i was still running cs4.
For some reason After Effects cs5 installed on my mac running osX 10.5.4. It requires osX 10.5.8. Adobe, why didn't this give me a warning?
Now, I don't know if it was the os update, or during that process it reset something critical......but after the operating system update the error no longer appeared.
Hope this helps.
