Advanced Poll

Advanced Poll was running fine the last 3 Month, suddenly following error occurs:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare set_max_bar_length() in /var/www/web286/html/php/poll/include/class_poll.php on line 116

What does this mean?

I tried also to install a secound copy but I can't chand my password it says on top of the page following:

When I get these errors it's usually becsue of a config error I made or a chmod error.

I was encountering this error when I installed the Advanced Poll software:

Cannot redeclare set_max_bar_length() [blah blah blah] on line 116

The issue was that, being new to PHP also, I had just installed the latest PHP (4.3). I installed the prior version of PHP and the error went away. If your polling app was working before but isn't now, it's probably because you upgraded to PHP 4.3.

I don't know enough about PHP to say whether there is a bug in the Advanced Poll scripts or it's a bug in the latest PHP. However, I PHP 4.2 clears up the problem.

Well I guess it's the php 4.3 - but what can I do? My site is hosted and I don't thing he will downgrade just because of me...
