`phpmailer` Getting HTTP ERROR 500 while sending different mail to different users

Question

I want to send mail to different mail to different users. But can only send one mail and then page shows HTTP ERROR 500

I can receive a single mail and then in my log it shows

PHP Fatal error: Cannot redeclare sendMail() (previously declared

I have tried $mail->ClearAllRecipients(); And $mail->ClearAddresses(); as mentioned PHPmailer - Multiple sending of e-mail

$mail->ClearAllRecipients(); 
$mail->setFrom('mail@domain.com', 'Mailer');
$mail->addAddress('mail@info.com', 'Joe User');
$mail->addAddress('mail@info.com');
$mail->addReplyTo('info@example.com', 'Information');

Data which is meant to be sent as email body is in array format stored in session.

[P54] => Array
    (
        [0] => Array
            (
                [id] => 54

                                        [3] => 1
                                        [4] => 440
                                    )

                                [package_name] => london_paris
                                [id] => 54

                            )

                    )

            )

    )

Can someone tell where am going wrong. So, I can mail different user different data which is intended for them.

Edit:

Complete Mail Code

Agreed, as well as the full error including a line number. We need to see the line of code the error refers to. — R. Smith, Sep 12 '18 at 13:54
You're probably including the source file inside a loop, without using `include_once` or `require_once`. — Alex Howansky, Sep 12 '18 at 13:57
You don't need to use any require/include if the package you're referring to is provided via composer -- the autoload does that for you. — Alex Howansky, Sep 12 '18 at 14:01
Alex is right - change your `require 'mailer.php';` to `require_once 'mailer.php';` (that script appears to be your own, not a library provided by composer). — Synchro, Sep 12 '18 at 15:37

As suggested by Alex. I was using require in the loop which is causing issue of

PHP Fatal error: Cannot redeclare sendMail()

So I replace require with require_once which resolved the issue.

Thanks for the help Alex :)

Check if in your gmail's configuration, your smtp has been enabled. https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#settings/general
