DropPrivileges problem

Losing my mind a little here :)

I have the following script:

import cherrypy
from cherrypy.process.plugins import PIDFile, DropPrivileges
PIDFile(cherrypy.engine, 
"/home/protected/server/logs/server.pid").subscribe()
DropPrivileges(cherrypy.engine, umask=0644, uid=25000, 
gid=25000).subscribe()

class HelloWorld(object):
    @cherrypy.expose
    def index(self):
        return "Hello world!"

if __name__ == '__main__':
    cherrypy.config.update("/home/protected/server/server.conf")
    cherrypy.quickstart(HelloWorld())

I'm hosing this on a shared hosting service where to daemonize, I simply 
run it in a bash script in the foreground:

#!/bin/bash
export VIRUALENV_ACTIVATOR_SIMPLE=1
. /home/protected/server/venv/etc/activate.sh
exec python2 server.py

When I try to run the script, though, I get the following error:

[28/Apr/2016:18:59:19] ENGINE Error in 'start' listener <bound method 
DropPrivileges.start of <cherrypy.process.plugins.DropPrivileges object at 
0x805a9bd10>>
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/cherrypy/process/wspbus.py", 
line 203, in publish
    output.append(listener(*args, **kwargs))
  File 
"/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/cherrypy/process/plugins.py", line 
285, in start
    self.bus.log('Started as uid: %r gid: %r' % current_ids())
  File 
"/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/cherrypy/process/plugins.py", line 
273, in current_ids
    group = grp.getgrgid(os.getgid())[0]
KeyError: 'getgrgid(): gid not found: 246576'

246576 is my personal UID. The hosting service is running the script as me, 
and the intent is that once started, privileges will drop to to uid 25000. 
What am I doing wrong?

Thanks!!
