    • Deleting Wiki Files Serious Problem

    Posted by Jaxor

    I am trying to eliminate certain files - ie: the ones created initally by TikiWiki on installation. Everytime I delete the file, it creates a new file with a long number (61c254c9c24ba7097dbf5992d4cd273b) . If I try to delete that file it creates another of the same, but new number, but does not delete the original.

    I have no idea why this is happening. Is there some config file or something of that nature that does not allow the deletion? I am stumped.

    Oh in the list its called Tiki initialization, but why is it recreating the same file over and over when I delete it?

    Those files are temporary files created by the Smarty template engine that Tiki uses. Their purpose is to speed up subsequent browser requests. It's normal for them to increase in number; you can delete them directly or at tiki-admin_system.php, but, as you noticed, they'll start being created again as soon as another server request is made at your Tiki site. Is there a problem with disk space or something?

    Nope - no space problems.

    Does this mean I have to live with that file no matter what?
