I had my site running fine on the devp. server. After I migrated the app to my production server. Everything worked until I added an extension and enabled it. The site still works but the product view page doesn’t show up. Everytime I click on the product view page, this error is appended to my log file…
CRIT (2): Not valid template file:frontend/base/default/template/page/1column.phtml
I have checked the file it is alright, just same as the one working on the development server. I’ve tried disabling the only plugin (custom menu) that I have and still the problem persists. I’ve tried increasing memory_limit but it doesn’t help either.

A common cause of this error is the use of symlinks without enabling this in the admin area…
The error gets triggered in app\code\core\Mage\Core\Block\Template.php around line 243 ( see here ) – so if its not an issue with symlinks then this would be a good place to start debugging.
If you are not using xDebug then where the exception gets caught around line 250 you should either log or var_dump the values of:
and
Then make sure they both exist (paying attention to the case)
Failing that you might want to look at permissions.
