Hi Iaspal,
here is what I think:
- Why do you use try:...except? You don't see the real traceback.
If you want to add debugging information (eg. logging.error('...'))
you could do it like this:
try:
except:
logging.error('...')
raise # reraise exception
- Why do you use HttpResponse for the canvas? You could use cStringIO or
a tempfile.
- Please post the traceback, if you ask for help. It shows where the
root of the problem is.
