No template named index error
python, pythonanywhere, web.py
Solution
You've used the literal path `'/home/user/templates/'`. Unless your username is actually `user`, there is no such directory, and therefore attempting to read the `index` template out of that directory is going to fail.
If your username is, say, `rhpt`, you'd change that to `'/home/rhpt/templates/'`.
Even better, you might want to use `os.path.expanduser('~/templates/')` instead of hardcoding your username. (Then you can give your code to a friend, or a client, and they can host it without having to edit the code.)
Problem
I am new to Python, and I am trying to run a web.py app with Python Anywhere, but I keep getting the `No template named index` error. I've modified `wsgi.py` to use the following: ``` import web import MySQLdb urls = ( '/', 'index' ) render = web.template.render('/home/user/templates/') ``` Any help would be greatly appreciated.
