Hi,
I face the same problem as Vadim too when I followed the tutorial at
(http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/0.96/tutorial03/).
I don't think we were supposed to change the URL config. Apparently the
loader.get_template should have loaded index.html from the template directory,
but it returned a 404 error for some reasons. Quoted from the site:
"When youve done that, create a directory polls in your template directory.
Within that, create a file called index.html. Note that our
loader.get_template('polls/index.html') code from above maps to
[template_directory]/polls/index.html on the filesystem."

So ^foo/$ means match a url that begins and ends with "foo/". Which of your URL regular expressions would you expect to match polls/index.html? Assuming you want your index to show the list of polls, drop index.html from the URL in your browser. If you need index.html there for legacy reasons, change your urls.py file to include index.html before the $. For example: ^polls/index.html$ But then you won't match unless you have index.html in your URL, which is probably even worse. If you aren't dealing with a legacy site, I would just drop the index.html. It just makes your URLs uglier, and less accurate (because you aren't actually serving up flat HTML).

stuck with tutorial 3 at - Write views that actually do something
Hi All,
I started with django and went through 2.5 tutorials relatively
painless, but nevertheless I stuck on tutorial #3. I tried to modify
regular expression, but error getting more complecated.
help needed fixed the urls.py (my guess)
thanks,
Vadim
Error message:
Request Method: GET
Request URL: http://localhost:8000/polls/index.html
Using the URLconf defined in mysite.urls, Django tried these URL
patterns, in this order:
^polls/$
^polls/(?P\d+)/$
^polls/(?P\d+)/results/$
^polls/(?P\d+)/vote/$
The current URL, polls/index.html, didn't match any of these.
