Django TemplateDoesNotExist at /home/

directory structure of dummy project

/dummy

   /dummy

            urls.py
            views.py
            setting.py
            _init_

            home.html

settings.py

TEMPLATE_DIRS = (
    "D:/Data/Codes/Django_Code/dummy/template"
    )

views.py

from  django.shortcuts import render_to_response

from  django.template import RequestContext

def home_view(request):
    render_to_response(request, 'home.html')

urls.py

from django.conf.urls import patterns, include, url
    
from dummy.views import home_view
    
urlpatterns = patterns('',
    url(r'^home/$', home_view),
    )

scratching my head over TemplateDoesNotExist Although have specified template directory in setting.py under TEMPLATE_DIRS

Try adding the app name in the settings folder under the INSTALLED_APPS section

On the browser where you get the error , search 'django.template.loaders.filesystem.Loader'

There mentioned the path where django look for the template.

Example:

django.template.loaders.filesystem.Loader: /code/templates/home.html (Source does not exist)

Try to add your template in the same path above .

To avoid the confusion add your template folder in the same directory as project_name and add os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'templates') in the [sqare bracket] in front of DIRS of settings.py

If your django site is hosted on docker , you need to see the exact path of template folder and need to mention it in settings.py

Just copy and paste the template path in setting.py. It will solve this issue.

'DIRS': ['/Users/abc/dort/dort/templates'],

enjoy!

  1. Never hardcode absolute paths.
  2. Your TEMPLATE_DIRS is not an iterable, the dir should be between []
  3. In case of problems, just run manage.py shell and from django.conf import settings; print settings.TEMPLATE_DIRS[0], this will show you the path used by django.
  4. Another way to see if django should find your template in manage.py shell is from django.template import loader; print loader.get_template('home.html'). Django should tell you what template directories it tries when it fails. That's important.
