I had a related problem. Cache files are created readable only by the
user the process is running as. This is a consequence of the use of
File::Temp to create the cache files, but it means that cache
directories cannot be shared between different users, even if they are
in the same group and set umask appropriately. I was bitten by this
when running the perl debugger on a web application that used Template
Toolkit: I had created a new template and TT2 cached the compiled
template, but the web application then could not read the cached file.
I get round this now by specifying the cache directory as something like
"/tmp/tt2-cache-$<". This means that each user gets their own cache and
avoids any interactions between processes using TT2 running as different
users.

Since Saturday I suddenly face massive problems with my on-disk-cache.
-------
file error - cache failed to write index.tt2.ttc: Error in tempfile()
using
/tmp/tt2/data/apache/knowledge/sandbox/templates/literatur/wienermoderne/XXXXXXXXXX:
Could not create temp file
/tmp/tt2/data/apache/knowledge/sandbox/templates/literatur/wienermoderne/D0wMRP4DtC:

line 280 path : literatur/wienermoderne/index.tt2
-------
compile_dir is '/tmp/tt2'
the funny thing is that, when I completely empty the cache-dir,
everything is working fine and suddenly on a random (to me) subfolder
the above error occures. When I look at the cache-dir into the
problematic folder I can see that there are different permissions set:
# ls -l /tmp/tt2/data/apache/knowledge/sandbox/templates
total 11
drwx------ 2 httpd139 httpd 224 May 30 10:52 historiografie/
-rw------- 1 httpd139 httpd 5755 Feb 7 09:34 index.tt2.ttc
drw-rw-rw- 2 httpd139 httpd 48 May 30 11:00 literatur/

drwx------ 2 httpd139 httpd 312 May 30 10:47 startseite/
for some wicked reason the folder literatur has a complete different
mod set. It lacks the X-permission and so the toolkit cannon create
subfolders. When I perform a chmod -R 700 * on the whole cache
everything is working fine for a while again. (and I dont want to
chmod 700 the compiled files themselves :)
I dont have any clue what causes this problem. And I didnt find any
config-option that allows me to fix the creation-mode.
Any idea?
thnx,
peter
ps: using Template-Toolkit 2.08
