I am running phpED 4.6 build 4613. I am having a smarty problem when I am in debug - a pop-up appears informing me of smarty mapping errors to local file system. This problem cropped up a couple of days ago and has not gone away. I believe it is related to two phpED crashes I experienced as either cause, effect, or side-effect. I sent you the dump associated with one of the crashes. Do you know what might be causing this problem?

disable mapping errors.

Thanks for the tip, Mat.

I am still wondering why this problem should suddenly crop up after nearly a year. What is at the root of it? How can I fix it?

Kevin, I'm not sure why on earth you're asking about it. 4613 is a very outdated build. We have released one major and many minor updates since that. If you havn't received notifications from us, please update your spam filter.
