(erratum corrected) I agree that Zope 2.7.2's deafult installation works OK in w2k. Unfortunately, there are many reasons why there's this need to use at least a system Python installation, and the main one is maybe that many Python add-ons distributed as binary installers require the system-registered version, while they can't recognize Zope's one.

From that perspective, current stable Zope 2.7.2 still has issues that previous releases didn't use to have.

For Zope on Windows, I'd recommend just usingthe Zope binary installer for windows and not trying to do anything clever ;-)

cheers,
