You don't start web2py from a Python shell -- instead, open a command prompt and do:
> cd path\to\web2py > python web2py.py Make sure you have pywin32 <http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/>installed. Also, you may need to create a PYTHONPATH environment variable and add your web2py folder path to it.
