    text
    copied!<p>I am using cherrypy for a project and use it in a main python script main.py In a method within the main app I import a module called authentication</p> <p><code>from authentication import auth</code> and then pass it the variable args. cherrypy has been used here already obviously</p> <pre><code>@cherrypy.expose def auth(self, *args): from authentication import auth auth = auth() page = common.header('Log in') authString = auth.login(*args) if authString: page += common.barMsg('Logged in succesfully', 1) page += authString else: page += common.barMsg('Authentication failed', 0) page += common.footer() return page </code></pre> <p>From within authentication.py I want to set session variables so I included cherrypy again</p> <pre><code>def login(self, *args): output = "&lt;b&gt;&amp;quot;args&amp;quot; has %d variables&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br/&gt;\n" % len(args) if cherrypy.request.body_params is None: output += """&lt;form action="/auth/login" method="post" name="login"&gt; &lt;input type="text" maxlength="255" name="username"/&gt; &lt;input type="password" maxlength="255" name="password"/&gt; &lt;input type="submit" value="Log In"&gt;&lt;/input&gt; &lt;/form&gt;""" output += common.barMsg('Not a member yet? Join me &lt;a href="/auth/join"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;', 8) return output </code></pre> <p>The problem is the error <code>HTTPError: (400, 'Unexpected body parameters: username, password')</code> when I use this. I want to have the cherrypy instance from main.py accesible in authentication.py to set session variables here. How can I do that?</p> <p>I have also tried passing the cherrypy object like so <code>authString = auth.login(cherrypy, *args)</code> and omitted its inclusion in authentication.py however get the same error</p>
