Ok, it looked like web2py installation for win32 (not 'source' download) was using the pywin32 afterall.
Something to do with the python path, perhaps., Because I change the name of the folder C:\Python27 to C:\Python27.hide just to see what happens And problem seems to be resolved after 10 minutes of trying to grab the same error. It was less than 30 secs before a portalocker.py showed an error. Go figure. But this implies in the meantime that I have to change or hide the python installation in my pc for webtopy not to grab this error and crash. I'll keep you informed. Thanks everyone for your help so far.
