TypeError: Object of type OperationType is not JSON serializable when there's an Exception

[sithembiso]

My code has not changed, I simply upgraded Graphene (graphene-python, graphene-django)

• What is the current behavior? Since upgrading to the latest versions (on Django 3.2.16), I have started getting the following errors when an exception is raised in my resolvers and mutations:

Everything was working fine before, until I upgraded to these versions:

Django==3.2.16
...
graphene==3.2.1
graphene-django==3.0.0
graphene-file-upload==1.3.0
graphql-core==3.2.3
graphql-relay==3.2.0
...

• What is the expected behavior? I expected everything to work as it used to before since I didn't change application code.

• What is the motivation / use case for changing the behavior? I was actually trying to get the latest version of the Graphiql GUI when I started. But then I noticed that my dependencies were very outdated.

• Please tell us about your environment:

  • Version: 3.0.0
  • Platform: Python 3.10.9, macOS Ventura (Chip M1 Pro)
