DIRS does not have the path that you indicated it has. Try changing it. DIRS = ['designer/template/designer/']
From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of John Wilkinson Sent: Monday, April 23, 2018 7:47 AM To: Django users Subject: Cannot find template files for 1.11 I am having trouble setting up django to find my template file I have created. The settings.py has, among other sections, the following: INSTALLED_APPS = [ 'designer.apps.DesignerConfig', 'django.contrib.admin', 'django.contrib.auth', 'django.contrib.contenttypes', 'django.contrib.sessions', 'django.contrib.messages', 'django.contrib.staticfiles', ] TEMPLATES = [ { 'BACKEND': 'django.template.backends.django.DjangoTemplates', 'DIRS': ["/home/john/git/primaryWindingsCalculator/windingCalculator/designer/template"], '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', ], }, }, ] If I take the entry out of the DIRS array, django won't be able to find my template file, I have put in a directory: designer/template/designer/ I thought that if my app was in the INSTALLED_APPS list, then it would look in there dor my templates, and in designer/static/designer/ for all static files, that it can't find also by the way. Any help much appreciated. Many thanks, John. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
