[Developers] Sandbox error 500

[Tim Kientzle]

Arthur,

Looks like this is the error you should have seen:

{ "info": { "expected_type": "\/music\/artist", "property": "alias" },  
"message": "Type \/music\/artist does not have property alias",  
"code": "\/api\/status\/error\/mql\/type" }

This, of course, raises two questions:
   * Why this error on sandbox?  Could be someone's data experiment on  
sandbox, hopefully whoever is working on this can chime in.
   * Why the error got mis-reported?  We are running a newer software  
version on sandbox right now; looks like there's an error handler  
broken in there somewhere.  Fortunately, I think I've found the  
details in our log files, so we should get that fixed promptly.

Thanks for reporting this...
