I tried this using the development server on my local machine and got the same result:
Template-loader postmortem Django tried loading these templates, in this order: * Using loader django.template.loaders.filesystem.load_template_source: o /django_projects/django_templates/polls/index.html (File does not exist) * Using loader django.template.loaders.app_directories.load_template_source: o /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/ python2.5/site-packages/django/contrib/admin/templates/polls/ index.html (File does not exist) # 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. '/django_projects/django_templates', ) # URLS.PY from django.conf.urls.defaults import * urlpatterns = patterns('', # Example: (r'^polls/$', 'mysite.polls.views.index'), (r'^polls/(?P<poll_id>\d+)/$', 'mysite.polls.views.detail'), (r'^polls/(?P<poll_id>\d+)/results/$', 'mysite.polls.views.results'), (r'^polls/(?P<poll_id>\d+)/vote/$', 'mysite.polls.views.vote'), # Uncomment this for admin: (r'^admin/', include('django.contrib.admin.urls')), ) # VIEWS.PY from django.template import Context, loader from mysite.polls.models import Poll from django.http import HttpResponse def index(request): latest_poll_list = Poll.objects.all().order_by('-pub_date')[:5] t = loader.get_template('polls/index.html') c = Context({ 'latest_poll_list': latest_poll_list, }) return HttpResponse(t.render(c)) I also tried another template and got the same error.
