Web.py with Google App engine

[Pankaj]

Hi,

I have not been able to use web.py framework with Google App engine.
It errors out while importing templates.
Can anyone point out what am I doing wrong?

Thanks
Pankaj


DETAILS

My project hierarchy:
mysite
-templates
-index.html
-web ( this is the folder 'web' from downloaded web.py tar.
version: 0.31)
-app.yaml
-main.py

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#main.py
import web

urls = (
'/', 'index',
)

render = web.template.render('templates/')

class index:
def GET(self):
return render.index()

app = web.application(urls, globals())
main = app.cgirun()

in dev_appserver.py
EXTRA_PATHS = [
DIR_PATH,
os.path.join(DIR_PATH, 'lib', 'django'),
os.path.join(DIR_PATH, 'lib', 'webob'),
os.path.join(DIR_PATH, 'lib', 'webpy'),////add the line
os.path.join(DIR_PATH, 'lib', 'yaml', 'lib'),

Thanks guys.

Templates needed to be compiled before running the app.
