hi,
i recently installed whmcs and bought a lisense for it, but i got this error:
The templates compiling directory ‘/home/vol15_7/epizy.com/epiz_20603333/whmcsdeta/templates_c’ must be writeable (CHMOD 777) before you can continue. If the path shown is incorrect, you can update it in the configuration.php file.
can you please help me @Admin ?
The folder you’re trying to write to is outside an htdocs folder, and your website can only access files inside it’s own htdocs folder. So yes, the path is incorrect and should be updated.

- Does the directory exist?
- Is it writable?
- Does it have 777 permissions?
Admin, please make sure he isn’t pirating as whmcs is a $15 a month software.
Sorry, I was too slow with my edit. I just noticed something else.

But as @Kieran said: please remember that pirating software is illegal and your account will be terminated if pirated software is found on it.

Please do consider the possibility that your friend is scamming you by giving you pirated software and pocketing the “license fees”. The only way to know for sure that your license is valid is by purchasing it from WHMCS yourself. WHMCS does not offer reseller deals.

ok, well Softaculous Apps Installer would not let me install it if the lisense would not be a real lisense right?

They will allow it, however it the admin area will be disabled. Nulled/modified copies don’t have this restrictions as it’s been tampered with.
