Error 500 in one specific post (the rest of the site is fine)

I've got a HTTP Error 500 when trying to access this post.

Here's the quote error ID's: ef4f6ec1-8d0f-4be3-9553-36e01b5f01c4 and bbeb9bf9-2c58-43b1-be05-c9e914bb80bf.

I've browsed to another posts and pages and all of them are working fine. It seems that only that specific post causes the error (couldn't find another one).


Tested on iOS 14.6 (Chrome 9.0.4472.80) and Ubuntu 20.04.2 (Chrome 91.0.4472.114 and Firefox 89.0.2).

That specific post was created by a now-deleted user, which might be the cause of the error.

That might be the case. We had this problem with a deleted user once before, but I thought we'd fixed the systemic problem and not just that instance. I'll ask the devs to investigate.

Monica Cellio‭ I saw that the post is working now, but the OP user is not deleted. Was the user restored? I'm just curious to know what happened. Anyway, thanks for fixing it!

This user had created two accounts and asked for a merge. I'm guessing that this post was created by the "other" account, the one that got merged in. (While the post shows a user, the history shows "deleted user" for some entries.) We haven't needed to do a lot of merges and apparently missed a check somewhere.
