Python CGI Webserver with SSL

This is sample code to run python CGI Web server with SSL. Note that i used CA signed certificate  due to that i need to provide CA certificate as well in my python code which may not be necessary if you use self signed certificate.

       
#!/usr/bin/python

import BaseHTTPServer, SimpleHTTPServer,CGIHTTPServer

import ssl

import cgitb; cgitb.enable()



#httpd = BaseHTTPServer.HTTPServer(('web.tanu.com', 8000), SimpleHTTPServer.SimpleHTTPRequestHandler)

handler = CGIHTTPServer.CGIHTTPRequestHandler

httpd = BaseHTTPServer.HTTPServer(('web.tanu.com', 8000), handler)

handler.cgi_directories = ["/cgi-bin"]



httpd.socket = ssl.wrap_socket (httpd.socket,keyfile='./certs/key1.pem', certfile='./certs/cert.pem',ca_certs='./ca_cert.pem,server_side=True,do_handshake_on_connect=True)

handler.have_fork=False

httpd.serve_forever()
