Fatal Error 'redeclare serendipity_db_update() '

[Math]

hello,

I run into this error..
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare serendipity_db_update() (previously declared in c:\program files\easyphp1-7\www\hardloopgroepNieuwstadt\weblog\include\db\db.inc.php:9) in c:\program files\easyphp1-7\www\hardloopgroepnieuwstadt\weblog\include\db\db.inc.php on line 9

Anybody knows what to do to fix this?

Thanks

This sounds like an error in your PHP installation (easyphp?), which is not able to properly resolve and distinct multiple PHP files.

We use a include_once call to include the file, and if the error of yours appears it means your PHP installation was not able to include a file only once.

Please try to use XAMPP as distribution, s9y is known to work in that environment.

Regards,

I hade the same error on a windows system !
- you can do the following:

edit the file functions_installer.inc.php at line 723

before:

Code: Select all

$serendipity['dbType'] = $_POST['dbType'];
    // Probe database
    // (do it after the dir stuff, as we need to be able to create the sqlite database)
    @include_once($_POST['serendipityPath'] . 'include/db/db.inc.php');
    // For shared installations, probe the file on include path
    include_once(S9Y_INCLUDE_PATH . 'include/db/db.inc.php');

after:

Code: Select all

$serendipity['dbType'] = $_POST['dbType'];
    // Probe database
    // (do it after the dir stuff, as we need to be able to create the sqlite database)
    //@require_once($_POST['serendipityPath'] . 'include/db/db.inc.php');
    // For shared installations, probe the file on include path
    require_once(S9Y_INCLUDE_PATH . 'include/db/db.inc.php');

after this i could test it on my windows system
