Before you get it going as a service, test it as just a regular Python script. I've created local servers using CherryPy before and been able to test them. I recommend you do the same with yours before changing it to a service. If you have a firewall installed (which you should), you may need to allow your program access through it. I've occasionally had to allow localhost with some of the more stringent firewalls. I found this post on creating a Windows Service for Windows 2000, which can probably be modified for XP: http://agiletesting.blogspot.com/2005/09/running-python-script-as-windows.html There's also this one: http://essiene.blogspot.com/2005/04/python-windows-services.html They both sound different from the way you did it, but maybe I misunderstood.
