  You can receive this error if you have uploaded a Craft website and your `craft/storage/runtime/cache` and `craft/storage/runtime/complied_templates` folders are not writable.

  **Disk usage over quota** is a possible cause for the error message `An error occurred when rendering a template` in Craft CMS v2.x.
  
  In this case, you will see the same when trying to access the control panel, regardless of dev mode setting.
