The problem is that you are mixing [#...] and <#...> syntax. You can
only use one of them in the same template. Furthermore, if you chose
[#...], you have to start the template with [#ftl], unless you
configure FreeMarker to use automatic tag syntax detection (which is
not on by default for backward compatibility).
