      In order to apply some results on localization of cellular and combinatorial model categories, it is necessary to work on cofibrantly generated model categories. Until recently there was no known example of a non-cofibrantly generated model category, but lately several examples have appeared (see \textit{J. Adámek, H. Herrlich, J. Rosický} and \textit{W. Tholen} [Appl. Categ. Struct. 10, No. 3, 237-249 (2002; Zbl 0997.18002)]; \textit{J. D. Christensen} and \textit{M. Hovey} [Math. Proc. Camb. Philos. Soc. 133, No. 2, 261-293 (2002; Zbl 1016.18008)] and \textit{D. Isaksen} [Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 353, No. 7, 2805-2841 (2001; Zbl 0978.55014)]). In this paper, if \(D\) is a small category, the category of (D-shaped) diagrams of spaces is the category of functors from \(D\) to the category of simplicial sets (or compactly generated topological spaces). The authors prove that the model category of diagrams of spaces defined by \textit{E. Dror Farjoun} [see Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 101, 181-189 (1987; Zbl 0661.55017)] is not cofibrantly generated if the diagrams are of a certain shape. In particular, the model category on the category of maps between spaces given by E. Dror Farjoun is not cofibrantly generated.
