Fatal error: Call to a member function IsConnected()

[Russ]

I have an enhanced {edit} admin tag which allows users to do quite a few things including backup and email the database. The backup routine uses parts of the config.php (I add some bits to the bottom) for settings etc.

To do this in my PHP I use
require_once("../include.php");
global $gCms;

This worked fine until version 1.0 when I now get an error. The backup is still created and the the e-mail sent. However, I get an error at the end of it all (my code has finished..)

Fatal error: Call to a member function IsConnected() on a non-object in /lib/classes/class.global.inc.php on line 370

I guess this is coming from the require_once above or use of global $gCms?

Can anyone help here?

require_once("../include.php");

I think you have the db twice.  remark the include and test it.

Thanks for the information Piratos, if I rem out 'global $gCms;' it still works, but with the same error?
I need the 'require_once' for some config file reading and emailing.

Any other ideas?

The error is - $db is set but it has no more connection to the database , because the connection id was killed by another close.
