I have deployed a flask application, using mod_wsgi with apache2
Now, checking if everything works as intended, it looks like my endpoints which render templates are provoking some 500 status code errors.
Here's an approximative tree of my project:
main_folder
requirements.txt
mainfile.wsgi
app_folder
controllers
views.py
models
repository
services
static
templates
terms
en
terms.html
fr
terms.html
uploads
__init__.py
config.cfg
webapp.py
I am calling an endpoint which is supposed to render the templates/terms/en/terms.html and I get the following in the logs:
Traceback (most recent call last):

raise TemplateNotFound(template)
jinja2.exceptions.TemplateNotFound: terms/en/terms.html
Here's an excerp of the code where I try to render the template in app_folder/controllers/views.py:
from flask import render_template, request, send_file
from app_folder.controllers import Controllers as controllers
def gts(lang='fr'):
return render_template('terms/' + lang + '/terms.html')
controllers().register(
'/cgu/<string:lang>',
'cgu_lang',
gts
)
I want to specify that endpoints with JSON body results are functionning, uploading ressources are working as well, and getting an uploaded ressource is working.
Only endpoints which should render templates are not working, which is getting me worried as well for endpoints which should send emails using an email template
Is there any fix I should apply when serving the application with wsgi?
Edit: FYI, this is the __init__.py in the controllers folder
