[Zope] PyWinTypes15.dll not found

[Philipp Auersperg]

This dll exists in  in the Zope tree in the directories bin and bin\lib\win32.
unfortunately none of these is in the PYTHONPATH.

Remedy:

copy PyWinTypes15.dll into one of the directories where it
searches for ( e.g. in your case C:\programs\ZopeDev\lib\python\Products\LocalFS)

or

change the start.bat so that PythonPath also points to these directories
