Cannot redeclare class db_sql_vb...

[Pyro]

Hi there,

I included several hacks on my index_homepage.php3 which is a non-vB page outside the vB directory:

All work fine, I got all problems like "cannot include global.php3" and "cannot add more header informations" solved with the great help of this community.

Now I came to this error:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class db_sql_vb in ./admin/db_mysql.php3 on line 7

when I try to include the following hacks in that page:

Ok, I can roughly imagine what happened but cannot solve the problem. The hacks work fine on a single page but I cannot include them in the page where the other hacks are included. What do I have to change/delete in the last hacks to make them run properly?

As always - many thanks for your help and best regards,
Markus

Im guessing, its simply as you include these hacks, they incude certain files, ie functions.php

or something, and as a second one trys to call it, they fail.

Have a look thru your files, and make sure global.php(3 in your case) is only called _once_.

Thats really the only file it should be calling.

Change all the include() statements to include_once() statements.

thank you for your quick help but it didn't solve my problem. I exchanged all require() and include() to include_once() but the error still occurs:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class db_sql_vb in ./admin/db_mysql.php3 on line 7

I guess, it has something to do with those two hacks and with the $DB_site in it.

That should fix it.

Also, in the script, change .php3 to .php for include_once and the db class name.
