I've got this problem a while ago as well.. It costs me a few days of 
headaches, and no one here seems to be able to answer the question, 
until I did some probing myself.

Your fix:
s = Proxy('http://%s:%s/' % (server, config.portNumber))
-----------------------^

See if that solves your problem as it solves mine.

If it does, then the issue is that the request sent over to the twisted 
server looks like:

POST  HTTP/1.0 # Note the lack of '/'

Which then gets converted nicely to:

POST  HTTP/1.0 HTTP/0.9
