I uploaded about 500 products and 15 categories using csvimproved.
On the "Virtuemart categories listing" , clicking on about 12/ 15 categories leads to the products page correctly. But in 3/15 categories, clicking the link results in the error :
500 - PHP regular expression limit reached (pcre.backtrack_limit)
You may not be able to visit this page because of:
an out-of-date bookmark/favourite
a search engine that has an out-of-date listing for this site
a mistyped address
you have no access to this page
The requested resource was not found.
An error has occurred while processing your request.
PLEASE ADVISE. I am a beginner, using Joomla 1.7.3 and VM 2.0 and really lost on how this error may be resolved !!!
Thanks.
I have never seen this error before but using Google found this link (http://www.reviewsforjoomla.com/forum/index.php?topic=17957.0), maybe it is of some use.
Hi RolandD,
Thanks for sharing this link. I had landed up on the same in my google search - and yes, the problem does go away if I disable SEF.
Is there any other solution since I would not want to ideally disable SEF !!
Thanks !!! You are always great help !!
Does ini_set work on your server to overcome the PHP restriction?

Apologies - please elaborate a bit. I am a beginner, but keen to learn and improvise !!
Thanks.
See this from the thread that RolandD found:

I modified the php.ini settings by editing the joomla root /index.php file and adding these lines;
ini_set('pcre.backtrack_limit',1000000);
ini_set('pcre.recursion_limit',1000000);
Updated the same in index.php but to no avail.
Please find the txt for the same enclosed herewith for reference ! Kindly suggest if something else might work..
Thanks a lot.
Using: VM 2.0.x ; Joomla 1.7.x
