I am upgrade Smarty 3.1RC to 3.1 that break my website with blank page. I have no idea what is different? or 3.1 needed special config more than 3.1RC?

I too have immediately hit a wall when I updated to the latest version from SVN.

filemtime() [<a href='function.filemtime'>function.filemtime</a>]: stat failed for /opt/local/www/sal/temp/templates_c/f9705b76f2fc376da6d55d6001497fac5076f494.file.index.html.php on line 607 in /opt/local/www/sal/platform/externals/Smarty/sysplugins/smarty_resource.php

Rolling back to SVN version 4227 cured the problem.
The problem is introduced in the next version on SVN (4274)

The other thing I noticed is that originally the error was for file templates_cf9705b76f2fc376da6d55d6001497fac5076f494.file.index.html.php - ie Smarty was no longer adding a DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR. That was easily fixed in my code, but it didn't fix the underlying problem. All file and folder permissions are correct (I rolled back to 4227 and immediately everything worked again without any other changes required).

All directory specifications need a trailing directory seperator. This sanitation is now done in the setter methods like setCompileDir().

If normally it schould not be possible to modify the directory setting directly. How did you do that?

To solve the problem add a trialing directory seperator,

My answer was related to the reply of chrisnode.

If you get a blank page it could be permission problems.

Add $smarty->testInstall(); to your script. It does detect permission problems. Also check your PHP error log file.

Hi

If you read my post you will see I already added the trailing separator but that didn't fix the problem. I've 11 years PHP experience and the bug is in the latest release.

@ error suppression is used at line 607 of smarty _resource.php.
So you should not see this error.

Do you use codeigniter or have enabled other options for debugging which will grab suppressed errors?

Hi all,

I switch to 3.0.9 and everything is ok

But when I switch to 3.1.0 I get a white page. I run TestInstall.php after modifying (addPluginsDir) and everything is ok.

No error is displayed with debug ON, how can I debug this problem?

Note: I switch back to 3.0.9

When you're getting a white page, you're probably facing a fatal error and have display_errors disabled (and don't know where your errors are being logged to).

add ini_set('display_errors', true); somewhere up in your script to make the error message appear.

Did you clear the cache and template_c folders after upgradig to 3.1?

Compiled and cached files are not compatible between the 2 versions?

caches were clear
thanks ! Yes it was a fatal error, I added

error_reporting(E_ALL | 'E_STRICT');

and I can see that now the modifier cat is "unknown modifier" !!!

I replaced

$smarty->setPluginsDir(SMARTY.'/plugins'); // where my plugins are
//$smarty->plugins_dir[] = SMARTY.'/plugins';

But it seems it's not enough?

make that addPluginsDir() instead of setPluginsDir()
