Title:
  TypeError: exceptions must be old-style classes or derived from
  BaseException, not str

Status in OpenERP Server:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  When the report format has not been recognized (for example, when some other reporting engine was installed in the system, but then removed, but reports still exist), server does not recognize the report format, which, itself is normal. But the syntax of throwing exception is legacy and not allowed with python 2.6.
  See the error below.
