I have already recompiled a lot of python files, but for the Template.py on the last row I cannot find a source template to compile.
Am I on the right track at all?
You don't need to "recompile" any Python files. Python files are compiled as they are loaded by the Python interpreter. The error message you pasted is concerned with Cheetah templates:

Cheetah is a Python text templating library, which NAV employs for its HTML web templates. NAV's template source code is located in *.tmpl files. Cheetah compiles these tmpl files into Python code, i.e. *.py-files, when NAV is built from source.
So the question is: Are you installing NAV from source, or from some prebuilt package? The Cheetah version installed on your SLES server appears to be 2.0rc6, while the templates installed with NAV were compiled using an older version of Cheetah (1.0). These templates aren't compatible with your newer version of Cheetah, and the simplest way to fix this is to rebuild NAV on a system with Cheetah 2.0rc6 installed.
