I'm trying to test gae-boilerplate locally, but when I try to create a new account the following error appears.
The strange thing is that if I open python interpreter and type "import pwd" it works.
Internal Server Error
The server has either erred or is incapable of performing the requested operation.

I believe this problem was introduced by an AppEngine SDK update. I'm currently using version 1.8.6. The gae-boilerplate README states that its been "Tested with SDK version 1.8.1"
I was able to run it locally by running old_dev_appserver.py <application root>
old_dev_appserver.py is provided by the SDK and is located in the same directory as dev_appserver.py.
Based on the traceback I got, it looks like the file boilerplate/external/requests/utils.py imports netrc which imports pwd. The newer version of the SDK doesn't allow you to import the pwd module in its sandbox mode.
