For a start, what process is throwing an Unhandled Exception? Is it Django (doubtful)? Or whatever Python fastcgi wrapper you are using? Or is this "exception" not really a Python exception at all, but the same word being used by, e.g., nginx? Secondly, any application that throws an UnhandledException must surely be logging the details somewhere (or the maintainer should be taken out for a quick conversation with some of the more hefty participants at the next conference he attends). So look in the error logs for clues. Thirdly, try to narrow down where in the whole request-response pathway the exception is being raised. Is any Django code being called? For example, if you put some printing to a debug log into one of the views of the admin app, is it printed? Or put some debugging printing into django/core/handlers/wsgi.py to work out how far it gets there (since that's the main wrapper function around the whole request handling). At the moment, the only information you have is equivalent to a radio report saying "there's a traffic jam somewhere in the city". It's not going to help you or anybody else avoid the problem. Hopefully that will give you some ideas.
