Hello Shantanu,

Can you post the source code? Or provide a simplified test case?

For this error to occur, something is accessing attribute YYY. You stated
that the main_page view isn't accessing this attribute, but perhaps the
object is being passed off to another function/file. If you're using a
framework, you also need to double check what the framework is doing - does
it use attribute YYY in some special way? Check that the object isn't being
declared as global. If you can't find anything, try defining attribute YYY
with a null value ( types.NoneType.None ) and see if any errors crop up.

Side note: I see you have an @google.com email address. Note that this is a
public mailing list, so don't send any code that cannot be made public.

Probably not, but it's a good idea to upgrade. It gives you performance
benefits such as multithreading (
