Getting an error with kirby cli

Kirby 2 Questions 🤔

Hello there!

I’ve been building a kirby site for a few weeks now and had installed and used the kirby cli a few days ago. Now suddenly when I run the cli, I get:

PHP Fatal error:  Cannot declare class Site, because the name is already in use in /Users/mrunkel/Projects/kautionsfrei/kirby/kirby/branches/default.php on line 16

Now, I’ve only been working with templates and patterns and haven’t touched the core code at all, so I can’t imagine what is is that I’ve done to cause this. I’ve already searched through my code to see if I’m being dumb and define $site somewhere, but I can’t find it.

Any pointers?

What was the command you used when this error occurred?

3

I believe it was clear:cache but it does it for all of them as long as I give a valid command. (ie, kirby by itself works, but kirby clear:cache doesn’t, neither does kirby make:user). kirby make:template does work, but I’m guessing because that never instantiates kirby.

Hm, I have no idea. What if you create a new project and use the Kirby CLI with that new project? Have you tried to replace the Kirby and Panel folders with fresh copies?

5

I have not, but I’ll give it a shot when I have a moment. At present, it’s not a deal breaker, just annoying so it will have to wait.

I was hoping someone else had seen this and would be like “yeah, check blah blah…”

Thanks for your time.

Are you in your project’s root directory? - and not in a sub-folder, like the /kirby folder inside it?

7

This path looks a bit strange…

Projects/kautionsfrei/kirby is the root of the project.

Hmm. Ok, so I’m working from a different computer today and the cli runs without issue, so it’s definitely a personal problem.

If I uncover something specific with the other system, I’ll post it here.
