ini: tweak template configuration for TG's handling of application errors

Mention what was learned while debugging request processing at WSGI/TG level
and the complexity of the TG stack gets in the way.

SQLAlchemy also flushes changes to the database automatically; manually
 
calling ``Session().flush`` is usually only necessary when the Python
 
code needs the database to assign an "auto-increment" primary key ID to
 
a freshly created model object (before flushing, the ID attribute will
 
be ``None``).
 

	
 
Debugging
 
^^^^^^^^^
 

	
 
A good way to trace what Kallithea is doing is to keep an eye on the output of
 
stdout/stderr from the server process. Perhaps change ``my.ini`` to log at
 
``DEBUG`` or ``INFO`` level, especially ``[logger_kallithea]``, but perhaps
 
also other loggers. It is often easier to add additional ``log`` or ``print``
 
statements than to use a Python debugger.
 

	
 
Sometimes it is simpler to disable ``errorpage.enabled`` and perhaps also
 
``trace_errors.enable`` to expose raw errors instead of adding extra
 
processing. Enabling ``debug`` can be helpful for showing and exploring
 
tracebacks in the browser, but is also insecure and will add extra processing.
 

	
 
TurboGears2 DebugBar
 
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
 

	
 
It is possible to enable the TurboGears2-provided DebugBar_, a toolbar overlayed
 
over the Kallithea web interface, allowing you to see:
