It does, operator precedence notwithstanding (for example, a lambda
expression returning a tuple that is being used as an argument to a
function may not interpret an unbracketed tuple, but as a second
function argument)

That's an edge case of string variable expansion:

print "Hello %s world" % foo

and:

print "Hello %s world" % (foo,)

give the same result. However, this flexibility isn't automatically
extended to any other usage of a single value tuple - the code needs
to explicitly allow tuples for input. The template loader doesn't.

Wow, that was a tricky one to track down...

After putting debug output in django/template/loaders/filesystem.py I
saw that filepath was set to:

'/Users/rob/git/anglers/anglers/templates/('book/
search_form.html',)'

I back tracked that and found that I had a trailing comma in my view
code:

if not template:
template = 'book/search_form.html',

I take it that gets interpreted as a single value tuple.  D'oh!  That
got there from a refactor where I copy/pasted that string when it was
in an extra_context dictionary and didn't notice the comma.

What's interesting to me, is that the file path got converted
correctly in the debug output but not in the template loader itself.

Yes, it's using the dev server.  I did check the permissions just in
case and they look fine (-rw-r--r--).

What is odd is I'm also using this template from a different view and
it loads fine.  I'm trying to debug now but I'm about to run out of
time and thought I'd throw it out here if anyone else encountered
this.

Thanks,

That generally means the permissions don't allow the code to access the
file.  You don't mention if this happens with the dev server (which would
surprise me, since you can load the template from the shell) or only with a
real web server. If it's only with the real web server than I expect the
permissions need to be fixed so that the web server can read the template
file.

TemplateDoesNotExist error when postmortem says it exists?

[Rob Hudson]

This is a stumper...

I have a very simple view that is a wrapper around the generic view
direct_to_template.  The loader finds the template as indicated in the
output "(File exists)", but yet I still get a TemplateDoesNotExist
error.  Any ideas?

I can go to the Django shell and load it just fine:
> ./manage.py shell
>>> from django.template.loader import get_template
>>> t = get_template('book/search_form.html')
>>> t

>>> t.name
'book/search_form.html'

Copy/Paste from debug output:

Template Loader Error:
Django tried loading these templates, in this order:
  Using loader
django.template.loaders.filesystem.load_template_source:
/Users/rob/git/anglers/anglers/templates/book/search_form.html

I'm using Django 1.1 beta 1.
