Cannot redeclare error problem when listing civevents
May 29, 2008, 06:04:41 am
Hi folks,

Several months ago, I implemented http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/List+of+Upcoming+CiviEvents+or+Feed+of+Events on www.cohousing.org.  We tuned/customized it a little, and eventually made three variants of the page, two of which were limited to particular event types.

When I did the copies initially, I got the "Fatal Error: Cannot redeclare [date variable]..." message, until I changed the date variable names so that they were unique per page.

Yesterday, the site editor asked me to look into a change to one of these pages (showing the end date as well as the start date).  I got it to work, but cron started throwing the redeclare error again.

So I undid my change... and it still threw the error. 

I reverted the page back to March, and it STILL threw the error.

I copied the code in from one of the other pages, changed the event type from 7 to 6, and changed the date name variable, and it's STILL throwing the error.

I have NOT tried resaving either of the other two pages to see if those start throwing errors also if i resave them to the database.

Any insights welcome.  It doesn't actually stop the page from rendering properly, but cron sure doesn't like it.

Thanks,

Interesting that you bring this up as I have been having the same issue. The problem is with cmp_date function. It is getting declared elsewhere (as you already know). I also changed the name of this function a few months ago and stopped getting the error. Just a few days ago I searched for the word "techie" on my drupal site and got the dreaded white page. Checking my apache logs, I saw it was throwing that error again. I have searched my entire db on the drupal side for where I missed it, but it's nowhere to be found. I am assuming it's because the word techie is in one of my CiviEvents, but it's incredibly annoying because the error doesn't help much.

Code: [Select]
[Fri May 30 10:07:04 2008] [error] [client 65.184.142.119] PHP Fatal error:  Cannot redeclare cmp_date() (previously declared in /var/www/html/includes/common.inc(1352) : eval()'d code:3) in /var/www/html/includes/common.inc(1352) : eval()'d code on line 7, referer: http://www.mysite.org/
Is there a page in CiviEvent that calls cmp_date function that could trigger this error based on a drupal search?
