I'd suggest reporting that to Treehouse Support directly. Sounds like a bug, perhaps they were working on Workspaces?

I suppose that somewhere in your index.php you have a block like this: ```$view = $app->view(); $view->parserOptions = array( 'debug' => true, 'cache' => dirname(FILE) . '/cache' );

Just delete the line  ```'cache' => dirname(__FILE__) . '/cache'```
That was my problem, we copied the code from SLIM (and it was a sort of different code than it was during the
making of this tutorial
