How to set a html page in Django?

I started to follow this tutorial and it teaches how to load the index.html, but now I need to develop a login.html page, but it seems not be working properly.

enter image description here

urls.py

urlpatterns = patterns('',
    url(r'^$', 'provisioning.views.home', name='home'), <- it works!
    url(r'^$', 'provisioning.views.login', name='login'), <- doesn't work..

    url(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)),
)

views.py

def login(request):
    return render(request, 'login.html')

How to setup the pages to be loaded by django ? Is there another and better way in doing this ?

You have the same URLs for both home and login. The regex pattern r'^$' specifies that nothing comes after your local host. Because they are the same and Django checks URLs sequentially, only the first url and view is called. Try adding a different url for login.

url(r'^login/$', 'provisioning.views.login', name='login')
