I have no idea how this framework is upposed to work but my
guess is that the problem lies here:

>        Problem.setSolver(self,solver)
>        self.p = threading.Timer(100, self.onTimeout())

Thios looks like you should be providing a callback
function self.onTimeout but you are calling the function
instead of referencing it. This calls the method before
self.p has been defined.

You need to remove the parentheses after Timeout.

I think...
