> Here's the code:

> #urls.py
> from django.conf.urls import patterns, include, url
> from django.views.generic import DetailView, ListView
> from polls.models import Poll
>
> urlpatterns = patterns('',
> url(r'^$',
> ListView.as_view(
> queryset=Poll.objects.order_by('-pub_date')[:5],
> context_object_name='latest_poll_list',
> template_name='polls/index.html')),
> url(r'^(?P<pk>\d+)/$',
> DetailView.as_view(
> model=Poll,
> template_name='polls/detail.html')),
> url(r'^(?P<pk>\d+)/results/$',
> DetailView.as_view(
> model=Poll,
> template_name='polls/results.html'),
> name='poll_results'),
> url(r'^(?P<poll_id>\d+)/vote/$', 'polls.views.vote'),
> )
>
> The way i decided (perhaps wrongly) to organize my apps and templates is as
> follows:
>
> Template dir as defined in settings.py:
> TEMPLATE_DIRS = ('/home/my_user/Webdev/Templates/', # this is where i'm
> storing my templates at the moment
>
> App location: /home/my_user/Webdev/Django-lessons/pollproject/polls
>
> If i try to access the polls app directly by using the URL:
> http://127.0.0.1:8000/polls/ i now get an error message stating that:
>
> TemplateDoesNotExist at /polls/
>
> index.html, polls/poll_list.html
>
>
>
> I realize this might have something to do with where i decided to store my
> templates (made more sense at the time to store them separately since i
> thought i could use different templates for the same app, for different
> purposes).
>
> This is probably a basic issue but any help regarding this would be greatly
> appreciated.

> Thanks!
