    Create this directory manually:

    /home/double/public_html/temp/templates

    And make sure it's writable. (CHMOD 777)

    Thanks for such a quick response - 'public_html/temp/templates' sure doesn't exist - but I am wondering I never deleted it - 'public_html/templates' exists.
    I never interfered here but I had added a few add - on domains a few days back. Could some malaware have got in and is messing the script ? What do I do ? - BTW - The directory has been up and running since Jan.

    Create the directory manually, or change the compile_dir setting to the existing path. There's probably a config.php file somewhere, where you can set this.

    I don't know what script you're using, and the config.php file was just a guess. Maybe it has a different name, or doesn't exist at all. Can't you just create this directory? Or have a look at the readme.txt, there should be some kind of documentation. Or check the site where you got the script from.

    Maybe it was never created.
