[edit by admin: formatting]

It looks like you have a broken path in your TEMPLATES Django setting -- one that contains your database filename. The "DIRS" list there should only contain directories containing templates.

How do i fix that ?

Take a look at https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.2/ref/settings/#std:setting-TEMPLATES

I'm really sorry guys i tried to fix the BASE_DIR as

BASE_DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(file)))

but then I got this error again. I am really glad that you have helped me till now and would appreciate some assisstance again.

You can't just use BASE_DIR / 'db.sqlite3' to mean that you want to append 3 strings. That says divide BASE_DIR by 'db.sqlite3', which is nonsense. Use db_path = f"{BASE_DIR}/db.sqlite3"
