How to Reproduce

While doing a POST operation on /discussion/4, Trac issued an internal error.

(please provide additional details here) we're still able to create/edit wikies, tickets and so on! /etc/hosts file contains following entries:

127.0.0.1 localhost 255.255.255.255 broadcasthost ::1 localhost
