I'm running a magento 1.9 fresh install in a Debian 9 (also fresh install) and I can't find the "Template Settings". It should be under System > Configuration > Advanced > Template, but it is not there.

I'm looking for this section to set the "Allow Symlinks" to On, but it is not there. Anyone can help me?

Thanks in advance.

Since Magento 1.9.3.4 / SUPEE-9767 symlinks are disabled (and config option is hidden) by default. You can only change it on DB at the moment:

Either ...

UPDATE core_config_data SET value = '1' WHERE path = 'dev/template/allow_symlink';

Or if entry does not exist ...

INSERT INTO core_config_data (config_id, scope, scope_id, path, value)
VALUES (NULL , 'default', '0', 'dev/template/allow_symlink', '1');

Note: Don't forget to add table prefix if you use one.

Or run this from magento root ...

<?php
require_once('./app/Mage.php');
Mage::app();
Mage::getConfig()->saveConfig('dev/template/allow_symlink', '1', 'default', 0);
