OK, I figured this out. python 2.7.9 changes the httplib.HTTPSConnection(...)
functionality. To get backwards compatibility, one has to add context=ssl._create_unverified_context() as a parameter to HTTPSConnection(). I haven't finished research, but it seems as though some question has been raised as to whether SSL security was ever implemented properly in python. I'm not knowledgeable about security issues, so can't speak to this topic with any authority. Here are some relevant links: http://bugs.python.org/issue23052 https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2014-September/136300.html Bottom line, adding the above parameter solves the problem.
