Exception Investigation: builtins:ValueError

[ccostino]

This is one of the errors we've seen captured in New Relic that we'd like to dig into and understand, if not also resolve.

This one is likely related to #1394 due to the same error message showing up with the transaction:

Invalid IPv6 URL

Error message: 'RequestContext' object has no attribute 'service' Path: / Exception: builtins:ValueError

Implementation Sketch and Acceptance Criteria

• [ ] Look through our log history at https://logs.fr.cloud.gov/ and see if any patterns emerge that might indicate what conditions cause this
• [ ] Try and replicate the error, if possible
• [ ] Follow up in this issue with any findings and possible remediation steps

Security Considerations

• Be mindful of not sharing sensitive information.
• We'd like to reduce the errors that occur in the application where possible to maintain application stability and performance, and reduce the chances that the application ends up in an error or invalid state.

This error message actually looks slightly bogus. In the logs, there are several error messages chained together.

500 error -> Invalid IPv6 URL -> Request Context has no attribute 'service'

It's not totally clear what's going on but it seems like maybe the cause is the IPv6 URL.
