django.template.loader can't find template

I'm adding text content to a webapp. When I ran the app in the local server i had no issue, but when i uploaded the template to the server it returns me this error:

Template Loader Error:
Django tried loading these templates, in this order:
**Using loader django.template.loaders.filesystem.Loader: **
**/home/manager/webs/sbc-web/sbcweb/templates/general/domiciliaciones.html (File exists)**

Exception Type: TemplateDoesNotExist at /domiciliaciones
Exception Value: general/domiciliaciones.html

here are my template loaders:

TEMPLATE_LOADERS = (
    #'django_mobile.loader.Loader',
    'django.template.loaders.filesystem.Loader',
    'django.template.loaders.app_directories.Loader',
    #'django.template.loaders.eggs.Loader',
)

My template dirs:

TEMPLATE_DIRS = (
    os.path.join(APP_PATH, "templates"),
)

the app path:

APP_PATH = os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__))

Here's the thing. I just did few modifications on the text of /domiciliaciones.html processed the .po translation files and overwritted the translation files and the .html

I tried to fix the page returning to the original (without my changes) but it doesn't work neither. If someone could help it would be great, I'm kind of desperate to fix that. I don't know if you need more information about the app, just let me know!

Many thanks in advance!

Maybe I can answer your question! In Django 1.8.2, Deprecated since version 1.8: Set the DIRS option of a DjangoTemplates backend instead.,so,you should not set TEMPLATE_DIRS,In my opintion,you should set

TEMPLATES = [
    {
        'BACKEND': 'django.template.backends.django.DjangoTemplates',
        'DIRS': ['templates'],
        'APP_DIRS': True,
       }
]   

I spent a half of day to solve this problem in my WebApp! I guess this will help you!
