 * Everytime i bring my site up i get an error that says wordpress database error
   that says
 *  WordPress database error: [Out of memory; restart server and try again (needed
   4194296 bytes)]
    SELECT * FROM wp_posts WHERE (post_type = ‘page’ AND post_status
   = ‘publish’) ORDER BY menu_order, post_title ASC
 * Now i tried searching this problem and couldn’t really come up with anything 
   and the things that i did come up with did not work. Im still able to view all
   my posts and the pictures and videos in them but all my pages along the side 
   and top are inaccessible…Now here comes the real problem. Im pretty much as green
   as green gets on these types of things. I had a friend get the domain name for
   me and he set up wordpress and gave me the all the FTP info and stuff, so i really
   still have no clue what im doing. I got the basics of FTP down and i was able
   to figure out how to modify my site to a certain degree and thats about it. So
   if anybody could explain to me fairly simple what i have to do to fix the problem,
   that would be great. If it makes a difference im running version 2.3.1 which 
   i know is out of date but i have not had a chance to get around to trying to 
   update it….So somebody please help. I really wanna get my website up and running
   again…

 * It means what I said — the error you pasted is a MySQL error, and its an error
   that your host ought to address.
