I searched the WEB2PY group before and I already tryed this method that you suggested on a previous thread. I used: web2py -a yourpassword -i 127.0.0.1 -p 8000 -S yourapp -M -R applications/yourapp/private/yourscript.py with applications/yourapp/private/yourscript.py that do: import datetime import time i = 0 while i<10: print datetime.datetime.now() time.sleep(0.5) i+=1 I see the output on the console for 10 times and then return to a shell prompt.
I'm working an a Vista OS using last WEB2PY for Windows.
