title: Freemarker template not found
body: <p>I'm currently trying to get Freemarker to work with my application using Spring.  No matter what I try I keep getting template not found.  I am not sure if I have the configuration set up properly, but it never finds my template.  Here is my spring bean config:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;bean id="freemarkerConfig" class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.freemarker.FreeMarkerConfigurer"&gt;
      &lt;property name="templateLoaderPath" value="/WEB-INF/freemarker/"/&gt;
  &lt;/bean&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Whenever I try to call getTemplate on the freemaker configuration it always sends back a template not found error.  So if I do </p>
  
  <pre><code>configuration.getTemplate("testTemplate.ftl") 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>it always throws an IOException.  </p>
  
  <p>I'm not sure if anyone has an idea of what I'm doing wrong.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks for all your help!</p>
