A user recently reported that a thread on my site started returning an Internal Server Error last night.
The thread is in Q&A format, but besides that it’s normal.
I dont know what’s causing this.
There’s another Q&A topic here which works fine.
Check the /logs page for the backtrace of the error 500.
I see this.

That looks like a bug in the discourse-question-answer plugin. I think if you remove that plugin (or perhaps use safe mode) that error will go away.
There was an issue recently where having the old discourse-feature-voting git along with post-voting in your app.yml would cause error 500 for the whole site. This is slightly different though, but may still be worth a check?
If so, could you try updating your app.yml with the discourse-topic-voting and discourse-post-voting links and see if that helps?

Yeah, I kinda forgot about this topic.
I’ll check that out.
