yes! that worked!!

Activation went smooth and then I re-activated the other plugins. After that I installed bbpress and that worked as well… but NOW most of the pages in the admin panel (such as plugins, posts, pages, media… ) are just blank. ;/ i guess i pushed my luck there and should have activated one plugin at a time… any suggestions anyone?

oh yeah, i have no problem running WP at all! It’s just that I can’t activate BP.

Thanks r-a-y hadn’t heard of Mingle before, looks allright but not as cool as BP though, besides I wanna replace my Phpbb board with bbpress and that comes along with BP if i understood it correct? We’ve been looking for solutions like wp-united.com and even tried that once but couldn’t make it work, too many bugs… if i can run a forum and administer it within wordpress like everything else, that’s what I’d like to do.

How do you mean disable futures in setup? The problem I’m having with 32MB memory limit is that I can’t even start the setup, if i could get through it, there’s a chance the installation would work anyhow…. at least that’s what we (me and my programmer) think…

I’m sure there are, i was in a hurry and i really didn’t want this tread to be a discussion about how much memory is “alot” or not.

Anyway, i checked dedicated server thing and that would mean that my server hosting costs will increase at least x12! that’s not optimal for me eighter. But i’ll look further for other solutions, thanks!

How will these answers help me? Ok. You got an opinion on how much memory is too much or not, but it’s not the issue here.

I use WP with lots of plugins and a PhpBB forum and a couple flashbanners and stuff on that site, everything runs pretty smoothly and my site is quite fast…

Yeah, ofcourse I’d prefer more memory, it wouldn’t hurt! But the problem is not that I have the memory but I think it’s too much so I don’t want to install buddypress, it’s my server host who won’t increase it. That’s the limit, no matter how much I complain.
I’m not saying that pressbuddy is no good eighter, once I discovered it I realized that I HAVE TO HAVE IT on my site, this is exactly what I’ve been looking for! But as it is I can’t istall it and it hurts.
So I checked around a little and noticed that not too many hosts offer 64mb eighter… and all I’m saying is if wordpress runs smoothly on 32mb, possibly buddypress too…

And I’m not looking for tips on “where to find a better server host who offer 64mb memory”, i’m looking for a way around this problem without having to move to another server host, thank you.
