Interesting. Normally I would use py2exe then do "myapp.exe -install" to install the app as a service. How do you handle installing the service? Also what does the service show under the properties, for the executable? "python.exe script.py" or something else?
To install, I simply invoke the Command-line handler which comes with the pywin32 service utils:
if __name__ == '__main__': win32serviceutil.HandleCommandLine (Service) (I imagine that's what py2exe's doing for you behind the scenes). The executable shows as pythonservice.exe. The short and long display names can of course be whatever you like. TJG -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
