Description Need Real Name 2002-11-29 08:36:05 UTC

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i586; en-US; rv:1.2) Gecko/20021127

Description of problem:
On http://localhost/admin/install.php:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare phpads_isconfigwritable() (previously declared in
/var/www/html/admin/lib-config.inc.php:30) in
/var/www/html/admin/lib-config.inc.php on line 28
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Explanation from phpAdsNew forum:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Someone told me that there might be problems with php-support with the Apache
version 2.0 that comes with Redhat 8.

He said that the php-support is "experimental".

Maybe You should downgrade Your Apache-version to 1.3.27.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Any help will be appreciate.
Keep the good work.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Start httpd and mysqld services
2.untar phpAdsNew release or cvs under /var/www/html
3.start a browser pointing on http://localhost/
	

Actual Results:  Fatal error: Cannot redeclare phpads_isconfigwritable()
(previously declared in /var/www/html/admin/lib-config.inc.php:30) in
/var/www/html/admin/lib-config.inc.php on line 28

Expected Results:  I should have the installer of phpAdsNew.

Additional info:

I can't "downgrade" to Apache 1.3.x, my server is in production now.
How can I do?
I hope there will be an errata for php because it appears there is a lot  of
problem with the interaction with Apache 2.0.x

Comment 1 Joe Orton 2002-11-29 09:50:57 UTC

In /etc/php.ini, change the setting:

  short_open_tag = Off

to

  short_open_tag = On

Comment 2 Need Real Name 2002-11-29 10:03:34 UTC

I'm sorry but I changed this directive as you said in php.ini, restarted apache,
verified with phpinfo that short_open_tag is On, but the problem still remains
as you can see:


Fatal error: Cannot redeclare phpads_isconfigwritable() (previously declared in
/var/www/html/admin/lib-config.inc.php:30) in
/var/www/html/admin/lib-config.inc.php on line 28

Comment 3 Joe Orton 2002-11-29 10:05:09 UTC

Then it WORKSFORME, at least.

I downloaded phpAdsNew-dev16092002.zip on a clean 8.0 install, set
short_open_tag = On, and I can load the installer page.  Maybe you can try a
different version of phpAdsNew?

Comment 4 Need Real Name 2002-11-29 10:10:55 UTC

My firsts tests were done with both cvs edition and official release but for
this last test (short_open_tag), I have only tested with cvs edition.

It works perfectly now with the official release, I thank you very much for your
so quick answer.

Keep the good work
