Hi, The simplest way would be to: 1) stop zope 2) rename the directory where you installed it 3) install a new zope instance under the old name of the directory, this time choosing run as service 4) stop this new service 5) delete the new directory 6) rename the old directory back to the original name 7) start the service again. This will make the installer create the right registry keys. Douwe

Hello,
I did the following steps (from http://twsite.bizland.com/twzop0002.htm) to try to convert my manually run Zope installation to a service, but it didn't work. Is there another way to do this, or did I miss something that I was supposed to do using the TechWorld site's way?
thanks, Kristina Buenafe
Converting a Manually Run Zope Installation to a Service Open the Registry Editor (Start Menu->Run-> regedit)
Locate (or create) the following registry entry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\WebSite\Param eters\Start
Change the value from:
"c:\WebSite\bin\python.exe" " c:\WebSite\z2.py" -S
To:
"c:\WebSite\bin\python.exe" "c:\WebSite\z2.py" -S -w 8079 -f "" -p "" -m ""
Where c:\WebSite is the Zope path. An explanation of the various parameters can be found in the Z2.PY file in the Zope root.
