docman fatal error Cannot redeclare

[dchai]

Hi,

I downloaded and installed following components on my mambo 4.5.2
- DOCMan 1.3 RC 2
- Lister 1.0 RC 2 module

After configured docman, when I click on the component, I recevie following fatal error message.

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare themeConfig::$details_homepage in c:\wamp\www\mambo\components\com_docman\themes\def ault\themeConfig.php on line 36

I was wondering anyone experience this before?
Looking forward for your reply.

Thanks.

I have the same problem.

"Cannot redeclare themeConfig::$details_homepage ... components/com_docman/themes/default/themeConfig.php on line 36"

Does anyone have a solution?

It seems to be a killer bug in Docman. If you edit the file components/com_docman/themes/default/themeConfig.php and delete line 33 (the first declaration of $details_homepage) you will get over the problem.

I was also hit by this bug when upgraded to docman 1.3 RC_2. I have PHP 5.0.4. A minor addition to the solution posted in the earlier comment (thanks for the same!) .

In the themeConfig.php I have, the *first declaration* of the variable details_homepage is on line 65. So just find this string and either disable or delete the line --
" var $details_homepage = "1";"

solution :
in the file themeConfig.php (docman folder) delete var $details_downloads = "1"; and delete $details_homepage = "1";
that will work wonderfull.

Just replace the codes

var $details_homepage = "1"; 

with :

//var $details_homepage = "1";

or you can delete codes :

var $details_homepage = "1";
