PHP Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class order -- after changing domain name

**whippetblue** · 22 Feb 2010, 11:06 AM

Hi,
One solution to this problem:

I got exactly the same error message:

PHP Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class order in zencart/includes/classes/order.php on line 1018

In my case it was caused by the file zencart/includes/configure.php. The '?>' was missing at the end of the file. I had obviously deleted it without knowing (and then made it read only). The strange thing is that it did not affect the running of the application, apart from the checkout, when it generated the error quoted above.

Regards,

- Jim

Actually, no, that would NOT be the cause of any such error.

Still having some problems. The checkout shipping address page shows up blank. When I try and add a separate shipping address it shows up blank but when I try and add a separate billing address it pops up. Everything works completely fine except when I try to add a separate shipping address.
The php error message I get is:
PHP Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class order in /home3/hometox7/public_html/includes/classes/order.php on line 1018
There are now extra order total, shipping, or payment modules added in.
Not sure where else to start looking for the problem.
SSL enabled but won't work on or off.
Any help would be much appreciated it.

This is meant to say NO extra order total, shipping, or payment modules added in.
Any Suggestions?

Just an update for anyone finding this post. I finally concluded it was the side box shopping cart that was causing the new shipping address button to malfunction during checkout.
If anyone has a solution to what would make the side box shopping cart do this it would be appreciated.

Hi bluewire,

I'm seeing the same php error... and like yourself, I've tried everything I can think of so far.
Do you mind me asking how you narrowed the issue down the side box? Did you see a difference when you diffed your files vs an original version?

Thanks.

I first realized it would work for the classic zen cart template but not my template. So I was able to eliminate a lot of files that were used for both templates and then knew it had to be files associated with the template I was using.
The classic template didn't display all the side boxes I had set up because they weren't enabled. So I try disabling the ones in the other template one by one til I found which one is causing it.
Hope this helps!
