Database.php error. Help Needed

[Guest]

Hi, all.

 

In desperate need of some help. All of a sudden I cannot access the admin side of categories/products. To be clear, when I click on categories/products on the admin side of the website, I get the following message....

 

"Fatal error: Cannot redeclare tep_db_connect() (previously declared in /home/sites/garlandsaudio.co.uk/public_html/sales/admin/includes/functions/database.php:13) in /home/sites/garlandsaudio.co.uk/public_html/sales/admin/includes/functions/database.php on line 13"

 

Besides this, everyting else on the website seems fine. Does anyone know what this means or how I can fix it??

 

Thanks in advance.

This means that the function tep_db_connect is in the "generated" code twice, once in /admin/includes/functions/database.php starting at line 13

 

You have probably added a contribution which has the function in it some where. You can either rename that one to tep_db_connectxxx and test your site again.

 

Or you can search your site for "function tep_db_connect" and delete one that is not needed...

Geoffrey, I tried what you suggested by renaming the tep_db_connect to tep_db_connectxxx but that just crashed the whole of the admin side. No matter what I clicked on the admin side, this message was displayed

 

"Fatal error: Call to undefined function: tep_db_connect() in /home/sites/garlandsaudio.co.uk/public_html/sales/admin/includes/application_top.php on line 61"

 

Any ideas???

 

Thanks

My guess would be that you have copied database.php to the wrong location or you have some backup file in the functions directory.
