Hi there,

I have just installed the latest version of Piwigo on mywebsite/photos

I am having a peculiar issue: it works fine on my computer (used for the install) but not on any other device. When I open the page, I get:

Fatal Error: Uncaught --> Smarty: unable to write file
/nas/content/live/xxxxx/xxxxx/_data/templates_c/awholebunchofnumbers.file.menubar.tpl.php
<-- thrown in
/nas/content/xxxxxxxx/photos/include/smarty/libs/sysplugins/smarty_internal_runtime_writefile.php
on line 79.

Any thoughts?

Kind regards

Check your permissions on the _data directory.

Alright, I got the host to change all directories permissions to 755 and all files to 644. (they were 775 and 664, would this make any difference?).

With my own computer, I can still login as any user on Chrome, but it won't work on any other browser, it throws:
Fatal error: Uncaught --> Smarty: unable to write file /mywebsitefolder/piwigo/_data/templates_c/ljbwkp^dacc5d4656874716fd986161fbd7500deb4b3909_0.file.identification.tpl.php <-- thrown in /mywebsitefolder/piwigo/include/smarty/libs/sysplugins/smarty_internal_runtime_writefile.php on line 79

On certain devices, I can see the home/login page, but it won't let me login with any of the three users I just created. Upon entering credentials, it just reloads the login page.

On other devices, it throws this error before I even reach the login page.
