Turning DEBUG=True causes a tornado of Error 500s

[Joel Mathew]

When I turned DEBUG = False in my project/settings.py, I suddenly got
a whole bunch of HTTP Error 500. Most of the css reources showed the
error. I have two apps in this project, and I've been sharing static
resources between these apps. Would these be the cause of these
errors?

See the following with DEBUG=True:

Please forgive the typo in the subject line. It should read "Turning
