Hello.  I'm a rookie as well and I'm having exactly this same issue. 
 Trying to figure out what to do, but haven't been successful 
unfortunately.  Based on what I read (convention over configuration),  I 
understand that I should to make a poll_list.html file and store this in 
templates, to get my site to work.  Or should I just change the name of my 
index.html file in templates?  Am I missing something here? Thanks a lot 
guys.
