Hello, I have been using Zope 3 primarily on Windows platforms for last 2.5 years. This is what I do for the typical setup:
- Install Python 2.4.4 - Install Python for Windows extensions for Python 2.4 - Install Zope 3.3.1 (the binary installer) - Go to C:\Python24\Scripts - Use mkzopeinstance script to make a zope instance - Checkout my application packages into the zope instance - Run my application Using the binary installers for everything works fine for me. Apart from these, I use some more packages: - ReportLab - Python Imaging Library - z3c.rml - etc. My SVN repository consists of my application package only. I don't check in the zope instance to SVN. After checking out the application package in my zope instance, I need to copy the application-configure.zcml into zope instance's etc\package-include directory. The zope 3.3.1 instances work perfectly as Windows services out of the box. At times I experimented with virtualenv, and grok. But haven't been able to stabilze their workflows on Windows so far. Web component development with Zope 3 by Philipp von Weitershausen has been my best resource on zope 3 developement all these years.
