I have to send mail using Amazon AWS with PHP, I am able to send simple mail but got following Error, I used many codes get from Google but still I got the same error every time.
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare Aws\constantly() (previously declared

include_once("SESUtils.php");
$subject_str = "Some Subject";
$body_str = "<strong>Some email body</strong>";

//send the email
$params =
array("to" => "to#xyz.com",
"subject" => "Some subject",

Answer 1

I had this error about redeclaring constantly() and the problem was resolved in our code by simply changing:
include('/PATH/TO/aws-sdk-3/aws-autoloader.php');
to
include_once('/PATH/TO/aws-sdk-3/aws-autoloader.php');
Maybe that will help you or the next person to Google this error message!

This is just namespacing. Look at the examples for reference - you need to either use the namespaced class or reference it absolutely, for example:
use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\PHPMailer;
use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\Exception;
//Load composer's autoloader
require 'vendor/autoload.php';
