I ran into the same problem and found the answer on the
mediawiki.sourcefore.org bug list by searching for "pear_error".
The solution is to alter the file PHPTAL-NP-0.7.0/libs/PHPTAL.php
and replace the line:
define('PHPTAL_DEFAULT_CACHE_DIR', '/tmp/');
to point to a new /tmp directory I made within the wiki's file
tree.
At first it didn't work, until I remembered to make my local /tmp
directory writeable...

Hi,
does anyone know what this PEAR error means:
[pear_error: message="failed to open stream: Permission denied" code=0
mode=return level=notice prefix="" info=""]
I saw this with a fresh installation of 1.3 CVS (20.7.04)
Any ideas???
Bye, Thomas
