 * I run popculturemajor.com and I’ve been getting 500 internal server errors today.
   I contacted my hosting company who told me they were getting this error and I
   should contact wordpress. They said it might have something to do with an update
   but I’m not sure what’s causing it. Please help, this is the message I’m getting:
 * (12)Cannot allocate memory: couldn’t create child process: /opt/suphp/sbin/suphp
   for /home/site/public_html/index.php

 * That’s not a WordPress error.

 * i’m guessing this is a server error/issue with memory and i might have to move
   to a vps server.
