Nevertheless, your "index_html" seems to be old.

Apparently, the old module instance was dropped (this dropping caused
the global variable to get 'None'). You should now have
a new module instance in its place in "sys.modules" (reflecting your
code change). If the ZODB connection cache was replaced by a new
one, then the self of your "index_html" is newly loaded from the storage.
This should give it the new class definition (where "index_html"
references the new module instance).

Something along this line appears to be wrong.
You need to investigate what it is.
