I'm trying to get a django project set up, and I seem to be having trouble with my urlconf. I'm not sure what the deal is, and the error below isn't entirely helpful to me. I don't think it really has anything to do with template rendering, actually, because I stepped through the execution path until just before the render_to_response function completes (which is where the urlconf seems to be causing an error) and the template objects are parsed correctly.

And pub.urls:

urlpatterns = patterns('pub.views',
(r'^$', 'index')
)
and pub.views.index:
