I think it has to do with GNOME's new setting to switch wallpapers based on light or dark mode. If you're using dark mode, you can modify the dwall.sh script, changing line 131 from
SETTER="gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background picture-uri"
to
SETTER="gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background picture-uri-dark"
Hey, thanks for your answer. I reinstalled dwall and changed the line like you said and it works now, Thank you again :)
I was having the same issue. I changed the dwall.sh, installed it again but got a new error. So I changed back to the original script and installed it again and now suddenly it works perfectly. Thanks nevertheless.

for me on pop in November 6th 2024 , it was originally this:
## Set wallpaper in GNOME set_gnome() { gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background picture-uri "file:///$1" gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.screensaver picture-uri "file:///$1" }
I changed it to
## Set wallpaper in GNOME set_gnome() { gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background picture-uri-dark "file:///$1" gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.screensaver picture-uri "file:///$1" }
note the change is only adding -dark on the first line
