Cannot redeclare getDB()

[lifepillar]

I am using the current master. On trying to import a data set with this command:

cd build
./utils/setup.php --osm-file map.osm --all 2>&1 | tee setup.log

I get this error:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare getDB() (previously declared in /Web/php/nominatim/lib/db.php:6) in /Web/php/nominatim/lib/DB.php on line 19

Any idea what the problem is and how I can fix it?

The message is a bit misleading as PHP needs to load the file DB.php and instead re-loads Nominatim's db.php. To solve this make sure you have the Pear module 'DB' installed.

 sudo pear install DB

The fact is, I do have it installed:

<?php
require_once('DB.php');
var_dump(class_exists('DB', false));
?>

$ php test-db.php
bool(true)

Any chance the test-db script loads the wrong DB class? For example if that class has a getDBQuoted method then it would be nominatim/lib/db.php

How about just renaming Nominiatim's db.php file? It is only referenced once in init.php as far as I can see, so that should be quick.

Same error. Anyway, I have created a VirtualBox image with a fresh Ubuntu system, I was able to install Nominatim there following the instructions in the Readme, and now it's loading my data. For my purposes that should be enough.

We really should switch to mdb2.
