Simple web server hangs on run

For a peice of work I have created a web server that handles multiple requests with threading however it now hangs when I run the program and I just cant work out why. It never reaches the stage of print('Connected by', address). Any help and explination would be greatly appreciated.

class Connect(threading.Thread):

def __init__ (self, connection):
    self.clientsocket = connection
    threading.Thread.__init__(self)

def run(self):
    stream = connection.makefile(mode="rw", buffering=1, encoding="utf-8")
    firstLine = stream.readline().split(" ")
    hList = []
    method = firstLine[0]
    path = firstLine[1]
    line = stream.readline().strip()

    while line != "":
        hList.append(line.split(":", 1))
        line = stream.readline().strip()

    if method != 'GET':
        stream.write("HTTP/1.0 405 Unsupported\n\nUnsupported")
    else:
        stream.write("HTTP/1.0 200 Success\n")
        stream.write("Content-type: text/plain\n")
        stream.write("\n")
        stream.write(str(firstLine) + '\n')

        for header in hList:
            stream.write(str(header) + "\n")

    stream.close()
    connection.close()
    return path == "/stop"

s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
s.setsockopt(socket.SOL_SOCKET, socket.SO_REUSEADDR, 1)
s.bind(('', 9999))
s.listen(1)

while 1:
    connection, address = s.accept()
    print('Connected by', address),
    Connect(connection).start()

Cheers

Are you running your example with Python 2 instead of Python 3? In Python 2 socket.makefile does not have a buffering keyword argument. Your example works fine for me in Python 3.
