Ive got an as it seems common beginners problem.
im working on my first django project and when I set up my view I get an "TemplateDoesNotExist" error. Ive spend lots of hours on this now - and I know theres lots of topics on it but nothing helped me till now.
I hope I can supply all the information needed so an advanced django user can probably directly see what Im doing wrong.
im using the developement server. and windows 7 & sqlite3.
this is the error I get:
TemplateDoesNotExist at /skates/
allsk8s.html
Request Method: GET
Request URL: http://127.0.0.1:8000/skates/
Django Version: 1.4.3
Exception Type: TemplateDoesNotExist
in settings.py I set up the TEMPLATE_DIRS like this:
TEMPLATE_DIRS = (
r'H:/netz2/skateprojekt/templates/',
)
the template loaders looks like this:
TEMPLATE_LOADERS = (
'django.template.loaders.filesystem.Loader',
'django.template.loaders.app_directories.Loader',
# 'django.template.loaders.eggs.Loader',
)
this is my view:
from django.shortcuts import render_to_response
from django.template import RequestContext
from sk8.models import Sk8
def AllSk8s(request):
skates = Sk8.objects.all().order_by('name')
context = {'skates':skates}
return render_to_response('allsk8s.html', context, context_instance=RequestContext(request))
it should link to allsk8s.html - and it looks like it does but the file can not be found although it is definitely in the right folder. but as you can see:
Template-loader postmortem
Django tried loading these templates, in this order:
Using loader django.template.loaders.filesystem.Loader:
H:\netz2\skateprojekt\templates\allsk8s.html (File does not exist)
this is a part of my urls.py
urlpatterns = patterns('',
url(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)),
(r'^skates/$', 'sk8.views.AllSk8s'),
)
and this is the system path:
H:\netz2\skateproject\templates
and in the templates folder is a file called allsk8s.html so as far as I understood it - this should work. I really hope somebody can help me cause this is the second time I ran into a problem like this and I can not figure out the problem.
