Step 1 Save somewhere in your project directory

Step 2 Add to your settings.py

MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (
  'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware',
  'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware',
  'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware',
  'django.middleware.doc.XViewMiddleware',
  'utils.debug.UserBasedExceptionMiddleware',
)

Normal users will get your 500.html when debug = False, but If you are logged in as a super user then you get to see the stack trace in all its glory.

    def process_exception(self, request, exception):
        if request.user.is_superuser:
            return technical_500_response(request, *sys.exc_info())
