I agree with Carlo, that web2py win binary distribution can not start as windows service. The long, painful memory is here. http://groups.google.com/group/web2py/browse_frm/thread/733896d0aec07d3e
And I understand that in Weheh's python 2.3 situation, he just can not run web2py from source. So the following trick might be worth looking at. I build another web2py.exe by py2exe, to hide the web2py.exe 's console when running. In this way, it runs almost like a background service, yet you can still control the web2py running instance by its icon in systray. Good enough for most cases. http://groups.google.com/group/web2py/msg/1f0f89ccbc137490 Hope it helps.
