Problems with Jinja2: TemplateNotFound: index.html

I'm trying to build my first GAE app with jinja2. After overcoming a dozen small errors, now I'm stuck with this:

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\google_appengine\lib\webapp2\webapp2.py", line 1536, in __call__
    rv = self.handle_exception(request, response, e)
  File "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\google_appengine\lib\webapp2\webapp2.py", line 1530, in __call__
    rv = self.router.dispatch(request, response)

    template = jinja_environment.get_template('index.html')
  File "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\google_appengine\lib\jinja2\jinja2\environment.py", line 719, in get_template
    return self._load_template(name, self.make_globals(globals))

    source, filename, uptodate = self.get_source(environment, name)
  File "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\google_appengine\lib\jinja2\jinja2\loaders.py", line 180, in get_source
    raise TemplateNotFound(template)
TemplateNotFound: index.html

Here my yaml file:

application: himother
version: 1
runtime: python27
api_version: 1
threadsafe: yes

handlers:
- url: /favicon\.ico
  static_files: favicon.ico
  upload: favicon\.ico

- url: .*
  script: main.app

libraries:
- name: webapp2
  version: "2.5.1"
- name: jinja2
  version: "2.6"

Here my code:

import os
import webapp2

import jinja2

jinja_environment = jinja2.Environment(autoescape=True,
    loader=jinja2.FileSystemLoader(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), 'templates')))

class MainPage(webapp2.RequestHandler):
    def get(self):
        template_values = {
            'name': 'Serendipo',
            'verb': 'extremely happy'
        }

        template = jinja_environment.get_template('index.html')
        self.response.out.write(template.render(template_values))

app = webapp2.WSGIApplication([('/', MainPage)],
                              debug=True)

Here my .html template:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
    <head>
        <title>Look Ma, I'm using Jinja!</title>
    </head>
    <body>
        Hi there - I'm {{ name }}, and I {{ verb }} programming!
    </body>
</html>

Despite the error message, I have a folder called "templates" and, within it, created the index.html file:

I also have installed jinja2.

Does anyone have any idea of the cause of this error now?

Can you use Jinja2 in Javascript?

JsJinja lets you use your Jinja2 templates in Javascript. It compile the Jinja2 templates to Javascript with no restrictions. The js can be generated via command line jsjinja <template file> or through the {% jsjinja %} tag in the templates.

Is Jinja2 secure?

Is Jinja2 safe to use? The python package Jinja2 was scanned for known vulnerabilities and missing license, and no issues were found. Thus the package was deemed as safe to use.

What is Jinja in HTML?

A Jinja template is simply a text file. Jinja can generate any text-based format (HTML, XML, CSV, LaTeX, etc.). A Jinja template doesn't need to have a specific extension: . html , . xml , or any other extension is just fine.

Try to use

loader=jinja2.FileSystemLoader('templates')

instead of

loader=jinja2.FileSystemLoader(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), 'templates'))

It works for me.
