I'm using Django 1.0, so it may be that your advice doesn't apply to me. In case it does, I tried following what you're saying. Unfortunately, I'm find it quite difficult to understand what you think the problem is. I get your point about how there's some config in settings.py that sets what template loaders to use. I think what you're saying is that some other file is clobbering that setting. Specifically, you seem to be saying that if the following line exists in one of my files, I'll get sporadic TemplateDoesNotExist errors:
from google.appeninge.ext.webapp import template I did a grep on my project, and I don't have that line anywhere.
