I am getting the following error with simplecache, it used to work before, but since yesterday I am getting this error:

What I do not understand is, I have not defined 'new_datetime' because it's not in my addon, and I can not find it in simplecache.py. Anyone has any clue what might be going on? Maybe an issue with the time I am passing from my addon? Or does anyone know an alternative that is easy and quick to store either function or data for a short time frame (+-2 hours)

The problem fixed itself the following day. From what I gathered, the problem seems quite common with simplecache. Also I noticed I was caching the function thinking it will cache the data, dumb me. Needless to say it all works now and seem stable, but still need to seek an alternative reliable solution to simplecache
