I added an extra try except block:
 
                if request.has_key(index.id) :
                    try:
                       if len(request[index.id])>0:
                            r=index._apply_index(request)
                    except:
                       raise str((index.id, request[index.id],
                                type(index.id), type(request[index.id])))
 
The original exception was a TypeError, len() of unsized object.

Cheers,

Morten
