Did i find a bug or am i doing something wrong?

While making some requests using my web browser to study the structure of json responses… i made the request below for what i believe should have been a BROWSE Event linked to resource Area (Los Angeles) including annotations aliases, and relations for everything… as i believe is valid described on the API page…

https://musicbrainz.org/ws/2/event?area=1f40c6e1-47ba-4e35-996f-fe6ee5840e62&inc=annotation+aliases+artist-rels+event-rels+instrument-rels+label-rels+place-rels+recording-rels+release-rels+release-group-rels+series-rels+url-rels+work-rels&fmt=json&limit=3

but the response (error) was unlike anything i usually get when making an errant request…
manifesting itself in the page as:

file error - main/500.tt: not found

Usually if there is a bad data, it return a message like, invalid inc parameter or xxx resource is not valid for xxx, or if there is nothing found then the count property 0 and an empty array of results…

some tech detail from the page if it helps:
