From filenames, I suppose you are trying the tutorial from trac-hacks.org or something. So, not really a Trac problem and I don't have time to look at your code. I'll provide you with some pointers and then close the ticket - please use the MailingList or IrcChannel to ask further questions.

Why the template isn't found can be any of a number of reasons, like:

• You are running Trac beta 1 of 0.11, and that is not supported and may be different from the release 0.11 - upgrade to 0.11.2
• You are running Genshi 0.4.4, while requirements for Trac 0.11 states that Genshi 0.5+ is needed
• Plugin isn't installed correctly and cannot be found
• It is installed but not enabled in trac.ini
• The code has errors preventing the plugin from loading
• The plugin does not implement ITemplateProvider correctly, file missing or wrongly named, or setup.py defined incorrectly so that files don't get installed
• And so on…

First upgrade your software, then use TracLogging for further details on what actually happens in your installation as everything loads and requests are served.
