Smarty

Hi,

I am installing smarty and I always have the same problem:
Fatal error: Smarty error: the $compile_dir 'templates_c' does not exist, or is not a directory. in C:\Document\cours_2info\php\www\Projet_pharmacie\Smarty\libs\Smarty.class.php on line 1144

My directories are:
C:\Document\cours_2info\php\www\Projet_pharmacie\Smarty\libs\cache
C:\Document\cours_2info\php\www\Projet_pharmacie\Smarty\libs\templates
C:\Document\cours_2info\php\www\Projet_pharmacie\Smarty\libs\templates_c
C:\Document\cours_2info\php\www\Projet_pharmacie\Smarty\libs\configs
C:\Document\cours_2info\php\www\Projet_pharmacie\Smarty\libs\templates\mep.tpl
C:\Document\cours_2info\php\www\Projet_pharmacie\messages\mep.php

The mep.php code is:
<?php
require('Smarty.class.php');
$mySmarty = new Smarty;
$mySmarty->template_dir= 'c:\document\cours_2info\php\www\Projet_pharmacie\Smarty\libs\templates ';
$mySmarty->compile_dir= 'c:\document\cours_2info\php\www\Projet_pharmacie\Smarty\libs\templates_c ';
$mySmarty->config_dir= 'c:\document\cours_2info\php\www\Projet_pharmacie\Smarty\libs\config ';
$mySmarty->cache_dir= 'c:\document\cours_2info\php\www\Projet_pharmacie\Smarty\libs\cache ';
...
$mySmarty->display('mep.tpl');
?>

the safe_mode in php.ini is 'off' .
the include_path =".;C:\Document\cours_2info\php\www\Projet_pharmacie\Smarty\libs\;... in php.ini

What's wrong?

Thanks for your regards,
Yvan

It looks like you need to replace your backslashes (\) either with forward slashes (/) or (\\) -- or use the php DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR constant for portability. Windows is a bit of a killer like that

This does NOT apply to your php.ini settings which look correct as is.
