Since we are in Magento technical support we sometimes get this error while entering the magento admin home page after login. The home page has a number of warnings and talks about locales. A sample error listing shown is:
Warning: simplexml_load_file() [function.simplexml-load-file]: (null)(null)/home/runinsty/public_html/paths/lib/Zend/Locale/Data/ko.xml:2780: parser error : out of memory error in /home/runinsty/public_html/paths/lib/Zend/Locale/Data.php on line 146

To solve this there are two things to be done, firstly ensure that the memory_limit value for php is more than 64Mb. Next notice the first line in the error sample:
home/runinsty/public_html/paths/lib/Zend/Locale/Data/ko.xml
What we are interested here is the locale ko
Now go to the file /home/runinsty/www/app/etc/config.xml search for the tag <codes> . A listing similar to the below will be seen:
<locale>
<allow>
<codes>
<af_ZA/><!– Afrikaans (South Africa) –>
<ar_EG/><!– Arabic (Egypt) –>
<ar_KW/><!– Arabic (Kuwait) –>
<ar_MA/><!– Arabic (Morocco) –>
<ar_SA/><!– Arabic (Saudi Arabia) –>
<az_AZ/><!– Azerbaijani (Azerbaijan) –>
<bg_BG/><!– Bulgarian (Bulgaria) –>
<bn_BD/><!– Bengali (Bangladesh) –>
<bs_BA/><!– Bosnian (Bosnia) –>
<ca_ES/><!– Catalan (Catalonia) –>
<cs_CZ/><!– Czech (Czech Republic) –>
<cy_GB/><!– Welsh (United Kingdom) –>
<da_DK/><!– Danish (Denmark) –>
<km_KH/><!– Khmer (Cambodia) –>
<ko_KR/><!– Korean (South Korea) –>
<lo_LA/><!– Lao (Laos) –>
<lt_LT/><!– Lithuanian (Lithuania) –>
<lv_LV/><!– Latvian (Latvia) –>
<mk_MK/><!– Macedonian (Macedonia) –>
<mn_MN/><!– Mongolian (Mongolia) –>
<ms_MY/><!– Malaysian (Malaysia) –>
<nl_NL/><!– Dutch (Netherlands) –>
<nb_NO/><!– Norwegian Bokmål (Norway) –>
Now delete all the xml tag lines beginning with <ko_ .
Next clear your browser cache and revisit your page to see the error fly away.
