Can you attach the output of post-review --debug <your params here> ? Make sure to
save it as an HTML page and remove any sensitive information. I'm mainly interested
in what the error is, where, and the backtrace.

Also, is this using Perforce or SVN?

receiving similar error. Below is bottom output of post-review with debug.

Unable to access http://server/api/json/reviewrequests/new/. The host path may be 
invalid
HTTP Error 500: Internal Server Error

Also a new change list request with a bogus attached diff does not produce 
an "invalid diff message" Repository is perforce. Used p4test.py with perforce and
all p4tests check out fine. 

Any Ideas?

We need the output of post-review --debug.

I'm running into this same error on svn.  It actually worked for a while.. and then
it started hitting this same error when you execute a post-review.

I'm attaching the post-review -d log.. I think I filtered all sensitive information

This is due to a bad regular expression in the "default reviewers" objects.  I've
just committed a fix which will allow diff uploads to work, as r1385.
