500 errors from course enrollments API #4195

Open pdpinch opened 5 years ago

pdpinch commented 5 years ago

This error isn't supposed to happen, but there are occassional, short-lived mismatches between when we think a course will open for enrollment and when it actually opens for enrollment.

We should:

  1. log a meaningful error that includes the edx course key that failed to enroll
  2. handle the error on the front end and let the user know that something went wrong
