It seems the class for the view is not being taken into account.

See, it's supposed to mention your view class instead of SimpleViewClass.

Try mentioning only the class in the ZCML (ie remove the template attribute) and execute the template explicitly in the class code, like this:

from Products.Five.browser import BrowserView
from Products.Five.browser.pagetemplatefile import ViewPageTemplateFile
class MyView(BrowserView):
    index = ViewPageTemplateFile("my-template.pt")
    def render(self):
        return self.index()
    def __call__(self):
        return self.render()
