Django 1.8 TEMPLATE-DEBUG = True setting sets off Template Not Found Error

DJANGO 1.8 Python 3.4

I had previously encountered the TEMPLATES array setting generating error "Template not found" when the Django template loader in fact reports that it found the template. This I was able to work around by reverting to the TEMPLATE_DIRS setting.See the Question

I needed to debug a template, so i set TEMPLATE_DEBUG to True... and it again generated the Template not found error:

index.html

Request Method: GET Request URL: http://127.0.0.1:7000/ Django Version: 1.8.2 Exception Type: TemplateDoesNotExist Exception Value: 

index.html

Exception Location:     /home/sdr/sl/lib/python3.4/site-packages/django/template/loader.py in render_to_string, line 138

Template-loader postmortem

Django tried loading these templates, in this order:

    Using loader django.template.loaders.filesystem.Loader:
        /home/sdr/sl/agryp/templates/index.html (File exists)

Error persists whether I use TEMPLATES=[] setting or TEMPLATE_DIRS setting.

I would appreciate some insight in to the problem.

Make sure you have provided templates folder path in settings.py Or check your template path is correct in views.py

In Django 1.8 it will be like this

TEMPLATES = [
    {
        'BACKEND': 'django.template.backends.django.DjangoTemplates',
        'DIRS': [os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'templates')],
        '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',
            ],
        },
    },
]

This worked for me.
