cherrypy/wsgi behind apache ssl - apache

Question

I wrote a cherrypy application and now I need SSL. I am working with apache/wsgi and have a working python file running and returning pages. Now I am trying to get POSTs to work.
This is my working script:
import sys
sys.stdout = sys.stderr
import atexit
import threading
import cherrypy
cherrypy.config.update({'environment': 'embedded'})
if cherrypy.engine.state == 0:
cherrypy.engine.start(blocking=False)
atexit.register(cherrypy.engine.stop)
class Root(object):
def index(self):
# restrict access by ip address
clientIP = cherrypy.request.headers["Remote-Addr"]
if clientIP not in self.allowedIPs:
return "Access Denied"
return cherrypy.url()
index.exposed = True
allowedIPs = ["127.0.0.1", "192.168.174.1"]
application = cherrypy.Application(Root(), None)
If i make modifications to catch the post:
class Root(object):
def index(self, files):
I receive the following error:
<h2>404 Not Found</h2>
<p>Nothing matches the given URI</p>
My apache config,
WSGISocketPrefix run/wsgi
NameVirtualHost *:443
<VirtualHost *:443>
DocumentRoot /var/www/ssl_html
ServerName 192.168.174.130:443

WSGIProcessGroup 192.168.174.130

</VirtualHost>
any help would be greatly appreciated! :)
