PHP Fatal error: Cannot declare class currencies_mod, because the name is already in use in

PHP Fatal error:  Cannot declare class currencies_mod, because the name is already in use in

/home/public_html/includes/modules/bootstrap/bt_price_display.php on line 63

How to solve this problem?

 

bt_price_display.php

st_tax_below_price.php

[Hotclutch]

Replace line 23

function bt_price_display() {

with

function __construct() {

 

[kep@]

When I replace it I still get the same error

PHP Fatal error:  Cannot declare class currencies_mod, because the name is already in use in /home/public_html/includes/modules/bootstrap/bt_price_display.php on line 63

HTTP ERROR 500

Check the first few lines of your includes/classes/currencies.php

  class currencies {
    var $currencies;

// class constructor
    function __construct() {

 

[kep@]

I already have that

// class constructor
    function __construct() {
      $this->currencies = array();
      $currencies_query = tep_db_query("select code, title, symbol_left, symbol_right, decimal_point, thousands_point, decimal_places, value from currencies");
      while ($currencies = tep_db_fetch_array($currencies_query)) {
        $this->currencies[$currencies['code']] = array('title' => $currencies['title'],
                                                       'symbol_left' => $currencies['symbol_left'],
                                                       'symbol_right' => $currencies['symbol_right'],
                                                       'decimal_point' => $currencies['decimal_point'],
                                                       'thousands_point' => $currencies['thousands_point'],
                                                       'decimal_places' => (int)$currencies['decimal_places'],
                                                       'value' => $currencies['value']);
      }
    }

I am out of ideas then, I am not familiar with this addon / module.

Thanks for trying

@kep@In the bt_price file try changing this line

  if (class_exists('currencies')) {

to

  if (class_exists('currencies') && ! class_exists('currencies_mod')) {

That may get rid of the error but the code may fail if that class exists for some other purpose.

Problem is that st_tax_below_price.php also calls class mod_currencies

st_tax_below_price.php

After this change, it shows the prices that should be available only to registered users.

You can make the same change in that file.

I don't know if this means it is working or not but, if not, it is probably because the existing currencies_mod class doesn't have the needed function. You can rename all occurrences of currencies_mod in those two files to something unique and that should allow it to work as designed.

[kep@]

When I change the class name from currencies_mod to for example mod_currencies then I don't have a problem with error 500 but it doesn't show me the tax.
And what this module should do

[Jack_mcs]

If you haven't done so, be sure to also change the line with "new currencies_mod" to the changed name.  Other than that I can only suggest you contact the person that wrote the code. Since it isn't an addon I have installed I can't check why it is failing.

[kep@]

If I had changed.
I tried to contact the author.

Geez, it is a wild wild west. The tax below price module used the same technique and class name to extend the currencies class to display tax. Ya, pick either module, do a search and replace of all the "currencies_mod" to "currencies_mod_copy" should fix ur problem. I recall these module files were self-contained within the module's directory. Do a uninstall and install of that module afterward to activate the change. I suggest to use something like Sublime text editor to do the search and replace...unless PHPStorm is available to you...good luck!

Yeah, you can't redeclare a class name.
