dispatch() Returns Exception Object Instead of HTTP Response in BaseAPIView

[R0hit-Sriram]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

Current behavior

When I make any API request that triggers an unhandled exception, the server crashes the response pipeline instead of returning a structured error response and I see the error message attached below:

TypeError: 'Exception' object is not a valid HTTP response

What I expect is a properly formatted JSON error response with an appropriate HTTP status code.

File: apps/api/plane/api/views/base.py, line 126

Steps to reproduce

1. Make any API request that raises an unhandled server-side exception
2. Observe that the response pipeline crashes instead of returning a clean error JSON
3. See malformed 500 with no structured body
