The error says that the memory limit set in place by your hosting company has been reached so it can't display the page. If you are displaying too many categories/products on a page and since you have a small memory limit, it is not abnormal. Also, if you turn off the "category explorer" option of the configuration, it will eat up less memory on product/category listings of the backend and might help avoid hitting the memory limit.

If you are displaying too many categories/products on a page and since you have a small memory limit, it is not abnormal. I would recommend to ask your hosting company to increase your memory_limit to 64M.

This happened with only one category and one product. I'm doing this site for someone and am not sure of what their memory limit actually is, but one category and product shouldn't be exceeding limits. I'll pass on the information.

If you have big images for your products, even displaying only one product could hit the memory limit. You have a limit of 32M on your web server (33554432 bytes equals to approximately 32M). Joomla takes already 6M. HikaShop takes approximately the same. Then, each module/plugin will take some more memory. Suppose that you're at 16M. Then, you add the processing of one image of 3M of size. Just loading up the image in memory will take 20M (the resizing library of PHP for images eats a lot of memory). With that, you're already over your limit of 32M.
