This seems to work fine as a service for me from source, current tree (as of tonight). A couple of notes:
>From the FAQ, http://mdp.cti.depaul.edu/AlterEgo/default/show/77 I just didn't like the look of "ip = socket.gethostname()" --> I left this as 127.0.0.1 for my test; also, left port as 8000 If anything, I would experiment with this - maybe something like gethostbyname(gethostname())... I did leave "server_name = socket.gethostname()" (which, for local test seems harmless enough) but I would probably try something like getfqdn() in a "real" install. Anyway, start / stop works; On winXP, using the command line "sc" command shows it as service_name web2py, and that seems a way to modify or delete the service. I'll try this on a win2003 server tomorrow (now that I've tried this). one thing I notice: State: (STOPPABLE,NOT_PAUSABLE,IGNORES_SHUTDOWN)... Not sure if we need to flush writes (reason to accept a shutdown)...
