you need to take into consideration what changes between the web2py 
environment and the cherrypy one.
assuming that you start cherrypy with something like this in a 
mywebserver.py

import cherrypyclass HelloWorld(object):
    def index(self):
        return "Hello World!"
    index.exposed = True

cherrypy.quickstart(HelloWorld())


and do python mywebserver.py to start it, a very few things change between 
that process and the one you get doing
web2py.py -a yourpassword

with your app.
are you starting web2py this way or is it "mounted" under apache ?
