And again Django can't find template (TemplateDoesNotExist)

Question

I found many topics with such problem, but can't solve my problem with it... So again, please, help to solve it.

Like I said, Django can't find template, but it exist in a "template" dir. And that dir also exist in my "settings.py".

TEMPLATE_DIRS = (
os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'templates'),
#BASE_DIR + "/templates/",
)

As you can see, I tried two different ways. With no success... With all templates in that dir.

As I can see, there is no path to my templates folder in Error Log.

Template-loader postmortem

Django tried loading these templates, in this order:
Using loader django.template.loaders.filesystem.Loader:

THE ANSWER IS: Conflict between TEMPLATES and TEMPLATE_DIRS

Answer 1

Please double check your template file path and file name. Maybe you can provide file structure of your django folder.

Here is my settings.py about template folder:

TEMPLATE_DIRS = (
    os.path.join(BASE_DIR,'templates'),
    os.path.join(BASE_DIR,'templates','OMS'),
    os.path.join(BASE_DIR,'templates','CRM'),
    os.path.join(BASE_DIR,'templates','PMS'),
    os.path.join(BASE_DIR,'templates','BPS'),
)

and my template structure:

base_template.html  PMS
BPS                 CRM                 OMS

Answer 2

from Upgrading templates to Django 1.8

TEMPLATES = [
    {
        'BACKEND': 'django.template.backends.django.DjangoTemplates',
        'DIRS': [
            **Your TEMPLATE_PATH**,
        ],
        'APP_DIRS': True,
        'OPTIONS': {
            'context_processors': [
                'django.template.context_processors.debug',
                'django.template.context_processors.request',
                'django.contrib.auth.context_processors.auth',
                'django.contrib.messages.context_processors.messages',
            ],
        },
    },
]
