j3.8 error

[skyrun]

similar to other one:

Fatal error: Cannot declare class FabimageHelper, because the name is already in use in /home/skyrunftp/subdomains/testlocation/httpdocs/components/com_fabrik/helpers/image.php on line 23

oddly, i get this one when i click 'new' to create any new element (on j3.8 with github updated moments ago)

and similar to other one, if i hack the alias.php file to name the class fubarFabimageHelper, then it works (at least allows me to create a new element).

And again ... that old helper file is not being included anywhere in the current github code. I know, 'cos the files have been deleted from git ....

https://github.com/Fabrik/fabrik/tree/master/components/com_fabrik

... and don't exist on my 3.8 test site. So if anything was trying to include them, it'd blow up on my site. Also I've searched the code repeatedly for any occurrences of /helpers/ (and variations thereof), and there are no lines left which include those front end helpers.

Those files will exist on your site, because you aren't doing an actual "git pull" with your site as a repo, so old files won't get removed. But you still should not have any code left which includes the files.

Have you tried what I suggested, and delete the old helpers (./components/com_fabrik/helpers/*.php), leaving only the legacy/aliases.php, and see which line in which file then errors out?

Is it possible you are using a custom "defines", in ./plugins/system/fabrik/user_defines.php?

good suggestion.
i had copied the email form plugin to my own version that runs content plugins before the fabrik tab substitutions and that custom plugin didn't have the j3.8 mods (does now).

so nothing wrong on a std fabrik install, you are correct. thanks.
