Hi Dushyant, From the default settings.py :
TEMPLATE_DIRS = ( # Put strings here, like "/home/html/django_templates" or "C:/www/django/templates". # Always use forward slashes, even on Windows. # Don't forget to use absolute paths, not relative paths. '', ) so you need to have TEMPLATE_DIRS = ( 'c:/myproject/template', } Hope that helps, Mike Dushyant Sharma wrote: > i have found this during working with django on windws. > if i create folder like template, backup (start characters t, b etc) > it wont work because template folder settings in the SETTINGS.py will > be > TEMPLATE_DIRS = ( > 'c:\myproject\template', > } > > it would not work because \t is tab character and it would render a > tab in the path resulting in template not found exception. > similarly other executable characters like \b for bell etc. would > result in template not found exception. > > a solution for it can be escaping the executable character so instead > of using \t using \\t would work > TEMPLATE_DIRS = ( > 'c:\myproject\\template', > } > > it's not a problem at all in linux. > > > > > --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
