Have you tried refreshing the Control Panel? If not just kick it (restart) from the Control Panel. I have found that the Control Panel is normally in sync with the service. Actually I got a little more nasty and wrote some Perl scripts to restart/reboot Zope servers/machines... -- Andy McKay, Developer.

I restarted the Zope server from the Control Panel inside Zope and it took a long time untill it was back up again. About 20 seconds. During these 20 seconds, I started to suspect that the service wasn't working, so I manually pressed the "Start" on the Zope Server inside the Control panel in windows. I couldn't. Below is the traceback I got. I suspect that it means that the Zope server is already running and that I can't start it again (see error and Fs.lock stuff).
It turned out that the server was actually running since people on the intranet was using it at the same time as I was struggling with getting the service running. Now the server is running fine, but if I go into the Services in Administrative Tools of the Control Panel, the service ZopeSite is "turned off". So from a quick look on the Win2000 server you can't tell whether the Zope Server actually is running, unless you open a web browser.
Strange. It's not a production server and I guess the w2k needs a robust restart with a little kick in the machines direction.
Here's the Traceback I got when I tried to start it because I thought it was started:
