Django Template does not exist error, although it shows 'file exists'

问题

I am not able to render any html pages in Django 1.7. My 'index.html' is in 'project/seatalloc/templates/index.html' and my view.py in project/seatalloc/views.py looks like:

 def index(request):
       return render(request, 'index.html', dirs=('templates',))

project/project/settings.py has templates dirs set:

TEMPLATE_DIRS = (
    '/Users/Palak/Desktop/academics/sem3/cs251/lab11/project/seatalloc/templates',

)

urls.py:

urlpatterns = patterns('',
    url(r'^seatalloc/', include('seatalloc.urls')),
    url(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)),
)

I have tried to follow the documentation strictly, yet can't figure out if Django detects the file, why am I getting TemplateDoesNotExist at /seatalloc/ error. I am new to Django, could someone please help.

回答1:

If - as in your case - you get a TemplateDoesNotExist error and the debug page states "File exists" next to the template in question this usually (always?) means this template refers to another template that can't be found.

In your case, index.html contains a statement ({% extends %}, {% include %}, ... ) referring to another template Django cannot find. Unfortunately, as of Django 1.8.3, the debug page always names the base template, not the one Django can't find.

回答2:

Try like this,

import os
BASE_DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.dirname(__file__))
TEMPLATE_DIRS = (
     os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'templates/'),
)

回答3:

First of all don't use static path (fixed path) in template dirs in settings.py, use:

BASE_DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.dirname(__file__))

TEMPLATE_DIRS = (
      BASE_DIR +'/Templates',


  )

And template directory should be in project directory i.e in which manage.py file exists.

And in view.py use render_to_response instead of just render.

return  render_to_response("index.html")
