Run Zope in console fails for me with application has failed to start because pywintypes23.dll was not found... That is surprising :) The reason it *should* work is that pythonservice.exe, pythonw.exe and pywintypes23.dll are all in the same directory. One thing I ran into last night: I previously installed a Zope 2.8 build on my box and uninstalled it - however, the Instance Home for this installation was *not* manually removed. I then installed this b2 release - Zope itself was installed into a different directory, but the same Instance Home directory was used. As this Instance Home directory existed, Zope did *not* recreate certain key files in the Instance Home. Thus, zopeservice.py and runzope.bat pointed to the *old* Zope binary directory, not the new one. I could see how something like that could cause the problem.
