Hi, I have a big headache for pylons app egg installation.
As I have read around the net, there are a lot of ways to deploy a
Pylons app. I have choose to use a virtualenv + easy_install, because
it seems the most easy.
I have read a lot of time the official documentation, but there is
something that I can't understand.
I'm going to summarize the steps I followed:
- virtualenv creation through go-pylons.py script
- project creation of course, bla bla bla...
- creation of the egg -> python setup.py bdist_egg - egg appear in the
dist directory

1) Now, one of the many documents I have read for packaging
application is this: 
http://docs.pylonsproject.org/projects/pylons_framework/dev/deployment.html
and in the "Egg Files" section it says:

"All Pylons applications are distributed in .egg format. An egg is
simply a Python executable package that has been put together into a
single file."

So, I thought I must copy ONLY the egg file on the production
machine...am I right?

2) I have not registered my application on PyPi, so I have skipped the
python setup.py register command. Is it not mandatory, right?

3) So, I'm on the production machine, I have activated the virtual
environment through source and I'm in the egg file directory
(Downloads).
I have executed this command:

easy_install -f C:\path\with\the\egg\files\in myapplication==0.1

with the correct name and version number and I get this message:

Searching for myapplication==0.1
Reading http://pypi.python.org/simple/myapplication/
Couldn't find index page for 'myapplication' (maybe misspelled?)
Scanning index of all packages (this may take a while)
Reading http://pypi.python.org/simple/
No local packages or download links found for myapplication==0.1
error: Could not find suitable distribution for
Requirement.parse('myapplication==0.1')

Some ideas?

Thank you all in advance and good work!
