Transferring a site and getting errors
Hi
Can anyone help.
I’m trying to port a site over to new hosting.
Have followed the instructions on the the site, but am getting this error message.
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare getCustomFields() (previously declared in /home/sites/mydomain/public_html/textpattern/lib/txplib_misc.php:2185) in /home/sites/mydomain/public_html/textpattern/publish.php on line 1155
Can anyone help?
Thanks

Re: Transferring a site and getting errors
Are you trying to migrate and update in one go? Please also post a diagnostics report.

Re: Transferring a site and getting errors
It looks like textpattern/publish.php and textpattern/lib/txplib_misc.php files come from different versions, please check.

Re: Transferring a site and getting errors
Hi
I’m just trying to migrate at the moment.
Not sure how I create a diagnostic report?
1) First I exported the sql database.
2) I copied all the files from the server over to the new hosting
3) I set up a new sql database, I had to set up a new user name and password
4) On the server I edited the config.php file in the textpattern folder to the following
<?php
$txpcfg[‘db’] = ‘My Database Name’;
$txpcfg[‘user’] = ‘My Database Username’;
$txpcfg[‘pass’] = ‘My Database Password’;
$txpcfg[‘host’] = ‘My Database Location’;
$txpcfg[‘table_prefix’] = ‘’;
$txpcfg[‘txpath’] = ‘My Domain/textpattern’;
$txpcfg[‘dbcharset’] = ‘utf8’;
?>
Thanks

Re: Transferring a site and getting errors
HI
I deleted all the files and uploaded them again on the server to remove any issues with there being different versions.
Now i get the following error, when trying to access the site -
Warning: mysql_num_rows() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given in /home/sites/My Domain/public_html/textpattern/lib/txplib_misc.php on line 177 Warning: mysql_num_rows() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given in /home/sites/My Domain/public_html/textpattern/lib/txplib_misc.php on line 177
Unknown section
When trying to access the admin, i get this error message
Warning: Table ‘DatabaseName.textpattern’ doesn’t exist describe `textpattern` in /home/sites/My Domain/public_html/textpattern/lib/txplib_db.php on line 82 Warning: Table ‘DatabaseName.txp_page’ doesn’t exist select user_html from txp_page where name=‘error_503’ in /home/sites/My Domain/public_html/textpattern/lib/txplib_db.php on line 82 Warning: Table ‘DatabaseName.txp_page’ doesn’t exist select user_html from txp_page where name=‘error_default’ in /home/sites/My Domain/public_html/textpattern/lib/txplib_db.php on line 82
DB-Connect was succesful, but the textpattern-table was not found.
Sorry, not used text pattern before and thanks for all the questions so far.

Re: Transferring a site and getting errors
Just guessing, tayfighter: You didn’t mention that you re-imported the database, i.e. there’ll be no plugins installed at the moment. Also, judging from the line numbers, the core code seems hacked to a certain degree.
Most traces here in the forum re getCustomFields() lead to the period your TXP version seems to stem from (4.0.7/8) in relation with glz_custom_fields, a plugin. The conclusion I draw is: Import the old DB and the errors will vanish, the glz plugin comes with the database import.
Edit: In the meantime my assumption re DB import have come true, like you’ve just posted.
Diagnostics can be found in the TXP Admin: Administration > Diagnostics. But importing the database before will be useful.

Hi
Can you check your db to see if textpattern table exist?

I have tried to re import the DB, but still have the same problem.

I dont think there is a textpattern table
I just exported the previous database and imported it.
Not sure what i’m missing.
