Hi Milind,

This issue bit me too. To continue

edit in E:\vgrok1\grok10a3\parts\etc\deploy.ini (and/or debug.ini)
the line in the section [handler_accesslog]
that defines the 'args' variable:

substitute the backslashes by forward slashes

After this, my Zope server was able to start up.

HTH,

Roger
