PHP debugging help needed?

Question

I have a script where I made some minor changes, but each time I attempt to run the script I get the following error:

"PHP Fatal error: Cannot redeclare format_run_time() (previously declared in /home/paradise/public_html/admin/functions.php:2) in /home/paradise/public_html/functions.php on line 190"

The thing that's driving me nuts is I don't use the function format_run_time() in this script and I have not made any changes to my functions.php file.

Answer 1

Beware of "include"

Use require_once("filename");

This prevent any file to be loaded twice.

For the rest, check line 190 of functions.php: "format_run_time" must be there!

Then check in the other file.

If all fails, change the name of your function.

Answer 2

Maybe you included functions.php more than once?

Answer 3

That function doesn't appear to exist anywhere else, so you should look for it in your code.
