Can't modify ticket

[markb]

Trying to add a comment to an existing ticket doesn't work. After clicking on the "Submit Changes" button, I'm presented with this error…

Trac detected an internal error:

int argument required

Confirm, I had the same thing after upgrading. However, the second time it worked and it seems to be fine now.

This is actually due to an error send mail notifications.

This is a really high priority [

I'm not sure why the email notification is failing, although using a ; to separate email addresses appears to be one cause.

The actual exception is because the log statement expects the ticketid to be an int, but it's a string at that point. I think the culprit is line 221 of Notify.py: {{{ tktid = '%s' % tktid}}}, where tkt is a reference to the original ticket object that was passed to the notify method. I have applied the following patch, and it seems to work:

             if '\n' in str(fval):
                 big.append((fname.capitalize(), fval))

After that is done, the log call works correctly. The stack trace of the email notification failure is now logged:

I haven't had a chance to look into this yet. Hope that helps.

Should be fixed in [1831].
