Ok, I managed to make it work.
I set the *ip* variable to '127.0.0.1'.
So, the ActivePython environment made the trick.
Thank you very much for your help Tim. ;)
Did anyone else try to run web2py as a Windows service using the .exe
install? I'd rather to use the .exe install because in that way I don't
need to install Python before installing my app.
Cheers,
David
