I have had Drupal running now for about 10 weeks. I have had one problem plague me since the beginning... every so often I get the following error
"Fatal error: Cannot redeclare conf_init() (previously declared in C:\Program Files\xampp\htdocs\includes\bootstrap.inc:45) in C:\Program Files\xampp\htdocs\includes\bootstrap.inc on line 44"

I have searched the Drupal Forum using the full error as my search criterea. I found multiple discussions around this same error but none give a specific fix that I can go back and implement. It appears most people encounter this problem while trying to implement Clean URL's (not the case here) and the fix is turn off Clean URL's. This does not fix the root problem it is just hiding from it.

I am not running clean URL's, does any one know.......
A) The root cause of this problem
B) The FIX to the problem

The same thing happened to me today. I searched Drupal.org via Google and found the fix in a prior conversation.

Apparently, Apache is picky about what order it loads it's modules. In Apache's http.conf file move the line that activates mod_rewrite to a place directly above the cache module listing so it looks like this:

LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so
#LoadModule cache_module modules/mod_cache.so

This worked for me. Good luck!
