Codex - Error loading environment description

Anyone else having this issue and know of a workaround?

On any environment that I try to open (Environments → click on environment name), I get “Error loading environment description”. This happens even on a brand new environment which I definitely gave a description. Effectively this means editing any existing environment is impossible.

Screenshot:

The other related issue I see is that the GET call to /backend-api/wham/environments/[hash]/with-creator-and-machine returns status 500 with {"detail":"Internal Server Error"} as the message. Presumably that failure is what triggers the error message I am seeing. This is happening across all my environments, and (I believe) it began happening after the last Codex release.

Are you still having this issue? It’s happening to 2 out of 4 of my environments too.
