[Zope] converting a manually run zope installation to a service

[Cornelis J. de Brabander]

Hi Kristina,
I don't know who very much about windows services, but this tip is rather
worthless. If your registry entry reads:
""c:\WebSite\bin\python.exe" " c:\WebSite\z2.py" -S"
Zope is already running as a service, thanks to the "-S" option. As far as I
can see the other options have nothing to do with it. At least I can do
without. You might want to add the "-D" option (debug mode) to see what's
happening. And if you add "STUPID_LOG_FILE=c:\WebSite\var\slf.log", the
"slf.log" file in the "var" subdirectory of your zope installation will
contain al the debugging information. Your complete entry would read then:
""c:\WebSite\bin\python.exe" "c:\WebSite\z2.py" -S -D
STUPID_LOG_FILE=c:\WebSite\var\slf.log".
