Re: template error in html forms

I've never run in to a TemplateError for anything other than what I pointed out - maybe in the settings module it is ".../templates" and the name of the directory is "template" (note the 's' in the end) or the other way round. Anyway, check for any misspelling in the template name itself - or whether the template 'search_results.html' is directly under the template directory and not under any subdirectory therein. 

If you could post the entire debug info (Also the one at the far bottom of the error page), it might be helpful for us.

yes, the path is already there. Maybe the problem is either in views.py or url.py file if changed it gives different error, but i dont know what to look for in those two files.

in settings.py, in the TEMPLATE_DIRS setting, add the absolute path to your templates directory - something like "/path/to/project/dir/template". This MUST be an absolute path. And if your modifying this setting for the first time, be sure to leave a comma (,) in the end of that path (Sorry if you knew that already :))

the installed apps has     'mysite.books', in the path and the html files are in a directory under mysite project directory. Is that correct?

Please check your template path in settings.py.

In views.py, when I add this code gives template error.

def search(request):     error = False     if 'q' in request.GET:         q = request.GET['q']         if not q:             error = True         else:             books = Book.objects.filter(title__icontains=q)             return render_to_response('search_results.html',                 {'books': books, 'query': q})     return render_to_response('search_form.html',         {'error': error})

I have created search_form.html and search.html and put it in "template" directory but get this error ,

TemplateDoesNotExist at /search/

search_form.html

I don't think you  have your settings set properly

Copy and post this part of your settings file:

TEMPLATE_DIRS = (
    # Put strings here, like "/home/html/django_templates" or "C:/www/django/templates".
    # Always use forward slashes, even on Windows.
    # Don't forget to use absolute paths, not relative paths.
    os.path.join(PROJECT_PATH, 'templates'),
)

This message looks suspicious:

TemplateDoesNotExist at /search/

search_form.html

It looks like you might have something like "/home/search" in your settings file.  If your templates are in /home/search/templates then you need to have a settings file like that
