If you are experiencing a "PHP Fatal error: Cannot redeclare wfProfileIn()" error when running MediaWiki, it could be due to a problem with the MediaWiki code or a conflict with another extension or plugin.
Here are some possible solutions to this issue:
Check the MediaWiki logs for any error messages or clues that may help to identify the cause of the issue. The MediaWiki logs are usually located in the /var/log/mediawiki
directory or in the syslog
facility.
Check the MediaWiki configuration to make sure that the $wgProfiler
parameter is set to true
. This parameter controls whether the profiling functions, such as wfProfileIn()
, are enabled. Make sure that $wgProfiler
is set to true
in the LocalSettings.php
file.
Check for any conflicting extensions or plugins that may be causing the issue. Make sure that you are not running multiple extensions or plugins that define the same functions or variables. If you find a conflicting extension or plugin, try disabling or removing it to see if it resolves the issue.
Check the MediaWiki code to make sure that there are no syntax errors or other issues with the code. Make sure that the MediaWiki code is up to date and that it is correctly installed and configured.
If none of these solutions resolves the issue, you may need to consult the MediaWiki documentation and online resources for further troubleshooting guidance. It's important to note that troubleshooting issues with MediaWiki can be complex and may require a good understanding of the MediaWiki code and the underlying system.
