Hi Fran, Actually I had read your first link, and then I was the person who posted your second link. :-) Running web2py as a service is a usual answer for the "no-console" need. But somehow that can only be done when using web2py's source code distribution (and therefore python is a precondition on the target PC, perhaps pywin32 too). I am seeking a way to do the same thing with web2py_win.zip binary distribution, so that eventually any MS Windows user do not need to install anything else, but just use web2py like every other "normal" windows programs. The goal is almost achieved now, with the help of "Hidden Start". I even write a mail to Massimo for suggesting him to try to apply a free permission of using "Hidden Start" in web2py, because of its license policy: http://www.ntwind.com/software/utilities/hstart/distribution.html Regards, Iceberg --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py Web Framework" group.
