*The error message:* ERROR! Unexpected Exception, this is probably a bug: cannot pickle 'module' object
I was accessing a new collection, icinga.icinga, and it complained so I decided to update... huge mistake. Now I can't keep track of what I have and why this error is happening. I'm guessing I need to route out the 2.9 version but wanted some advice before i go... into the valley below. ;) Thanks for any tips...
