The full traceback would be more useful than just the last line, since
that will explain where you are coming from to get to this point. What
is most important to know is (a) what is the data that it is trying to
render (both type and content). Try to find where you load that data and
print out it's type and repr() -- don't print str(), since that
disguises problems by calling conversion function, (b) what piece of
code is loading this data or trying to display it.
You seem to be suggesting that you don't see the problem with the
development server but in some other set up you do see it. What are the
details of this other setup? What else has changed between when you
didn't see the error and when it started to appear? For example, have
you changed the database backend?
