500 error on some Nominatim servers, but not others #996

Via https://community.openstreetmap.org/t/why-does-this-australian-address-always-raise-a-500-error/106176, it was reported that https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/search?q=Sydney%2C+New+South+Wales+AU&format=jsonv2&addressdetails=1&limit=1 returns a 500 error. Some people were seeing it, and others weren't.

Checking the servers one-by-one, the error seems to be from vhagar, where the query takes a few seconds then returns a 500 error: https://vhagar.openstreetmap.org/search?q=Sydney%2C+New+South+Wales+AU&format=jsonv2&addressdetails=1&limit=1

Not really operational, but rather a software issue. Question of tweaking parameters in the new Python code. Temporary fix pushed.
