New description:
When 'TemplateDoesNotExist' occurs from using {% extends %} or {% include
%} with wrong file names,
technical_500.html only tells you that source does not exist.
For example, use of below code...
{{{
base.html
{% block content %}
{% endblock %}
home.html
{% extends 'baseX.html' %}
{% block content %}
This is home
{% endblock %}
}}}
will give you...
{{{
TemplateDoesNotExist at /
baseX.html
}}}
I propose we add some informative message to help find the source of error
by adding
{{{
Did you mean...
/Users/minhokim/Code/Django/djangodev/empty/templates/base.html
/Users/minhokim/Code/Django/djangodev/empty/templates2/baseXX.html
}}}
