Hi,

I get the following error when running UpdateMembershipRecord.php on a site that uses a custom PHP directory:

PHP Fatal error:  Cannot redeclare class CRM_Core_BAO_CustomField in /var/www/html/drupal-6.9/sites/my.domain/civicrm_custom_php/CRM/Core/BAO
/CustomField.php on line 1470

I'm guessing the script should be checking for files in the custom PHP dir ahead of the standard location, but doesn't.

Thanks,

Dave J

Thanks for the response, Lobo, sorry for the delay in responding. Tested again with 2.2.3 .

r u using require_once in your custom code

The only change in the customised CustomField.php is a text change. The problem occurs even if I put an unmodified CustomField.php in (the relevant subdir of) the custom directory. If I remove CustomField.php from the custom directory (keeping all our other customisations in place), the problem disappears and UpdateMembershipRecord.php succeeds.

your best bet would be to put a CRM_Core_Error::backtrace( ); before the two class declaraction (in CiviCRM and your custom template) and see who is the offending culprit

backTrace

/var/www/html/mysite/drupal-6.12/sites/all/modules/civicrm/CRM/Core/BAO/CustomField.php, backtrace, 44
/var/www/html/mysite/drupal-6.12/sites/all/modules/civicrm/CRM/Member/BAO/Membership.php, require_once, 39
/var/www/html/mysite/drupal-6.12/sites/all/modules/civicrm/bin/UpdateMembershipRecord.php, require_once, 39

Thanks,

Dave
