Internal Server Error - AZ Dems Nomad

[flynnwastaken]

On Chrome in Chromebook, clicking between homepage and Profile while logged into Admin account, both when selecting the homepage by clicking the logo in the upper left corner and when going to the Profile from the homepage using the dropdown user menu I've gotten "Internal Server Error"

@flynnwastaken , any other steps to reproduce the bug? Is your profile complete, or are you on the profile page to fill it out?

I'm not seeing it on Chrome/MacOS fwiw.

This looks to be a transient error here: https://sentry.ragtag.org/ragtag/nomad-prod/issues/157/

[jillh510]

@iandees this bug is fixed, right?

[iandees]

We didn't do anything to fix it, but I don't think it's reproducible.

I have not repro'd this, but wondering if it could be caused by bouncing around environments (something Flynn would do, but clients wouldn't)? Different tabs being in production, AZ Dems, NY, like that.

Yeah I agree with Ian that this is transient. I did come across https://stackoverflow.com/questions/31121948/flask-sqlalchemy-cant-reconnect-until-invalid-transaction-is-rolled-back looking up the error message. I wonder if it was a bad migration?

[iandees]

My guess is that it was an error that happened in another session on this Nomad instance. I poked through the logs quickly to see if there was something that stood out before this error but didn't see anything.

[dryan]

Yeah I agree. I think we're good to close this out (leave it to @jillh510 to decide for sure). If we see this error in production I would suggest re-deploying on Heroku to get a new session opened up.

I've taken it off the Priority list but would like to leave it open in case anyone sees it again in the next two weeks. If not, then we'll close as "can't reproduce".
