django UnreadablePostError: request data read error

django, mod-wsgi, python

Solution

Why this error is happening ?

because the server is recieving a malformed request, which can happen for many reasons. someone might've canceled loading the page, someone might have a crappy internet connection that cut out, cosmic rays could have flipped a bit.

it's not something you really need to worry about until it starts happening very frequently. you might want to make a note when these errors happen and see if it's consequently on the same page or not.

How to solve?

you can't. not at this point at least. gather some more data on when this bug occurs exactly. see if you can find a way to trigger it manually.
