[web2py:13184] Re: start web2py as windows service

[Timothy Farrell]

OK, so it's not the port thing.  Have you checked Event viewer?  Start -> Control Panel ->Administrative Tools -> Event Viewer web2py events show up under the application log.  This won't be of much help, but we should be able to see if it's stopping or crashing. Just a quick thought, are you sure nothing else is running on port 8000? After the event viewer, let's head over to services and take a look at the web2py service.  My path to execution is: "C:\Python25\lib\site-packages\win32\PythonService.exe" options My service runs under the administrator account, but running it under the Local System account (the default) should be fine. -tim Cristian Re wrote: I want to start it on port "8000". In the option file the number of port is 8000 and the name of file parameters is "parameters_8000.py". It doesn't start but there isn't any error message (or I don't know where I can find it) 2008/12/9 Timothy Farrell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Is the port specified in options.py port 80 or 8000?  If it's 80, you'll need to rename parameters_8000.py to parameters_80.py. -tim Cristian Re wrote: Yes, starting it with a cmd prompt it work fine. In my directory there are the two files. The parameters_8000.py was created when I started web2py.py (I think it contains the md5 password for administrator) The option.py was created by me renaming options_std.py because I want to test it, I don't chang anything in the option.py file. Now is ok if it work fine on port 8000 in localhost Cristian 2008/12/9 Timothy Farrell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> First start it normally (in widget form) to see if there are any errors. web2py.py If that works just fine, check your options.py file and parameters_<correct port number here>.py Are they:  - there (do they exist)?  - valid python? Check those and comeback if it isn't one of those issues. -tim misterc wrote: Hello, I downloaded the source version of the framework. I read this document: http://mdp.cti.depaul.edu/AlterEgo/default/show/77 and I tried to start as a service web2py on my Windows XP sp3. I was able to install web2py as a service (with web2py.py -W install) but I don't understand why I can not start it.
