C:\uniart4\uniart4\www>web2py.exe -W start web2py Web Framework Created by Massimo Di Pierro, Copyright 2007-2011 Version 1.98.1 (2011-07-31 10:15:50) Database drivers available: SQLite3, pymysql Starting hardcron... Starting service web2py Error starting service: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion. The service does appear in the list of installed applications. I've tried installing web2py.py, it didn't work, or throw an error of any sort I've tried running '"C:\uniart4\uniart4\www\web2py.exe" options' (the lines I saw in the services.msc). It gave me the gui screen to choose port and password and so on. When I tried "C:\uniart4\uniart4\www \web2py.exe" -L options (from web2py folder), it worked as expected. I'd try changing the service params - but I have no idea how. That's what I can say about this problem. Is it a bug? Is it me not knowing what I'm doing (I'm a linux person trapped on a windows computer :( )? Thanks in advance Yaya
