<BR>
Using the supplied example provided by you as a guide, I adapted the OMERO ICE deployment descriptor to perform as advertised (by Zeroc), as long as the IceGrid invocation and IceGridAdmin deployment were both performed from the command-line.<BR>
<BR>
The identicle configuration and deployment when invoked as a service, caused both the TRACE and IcePatch2 functionality to fail. Since this is the standard method for the OMERO deployment, any progress has been painfully non-existant, until I received your supplied example demo.<BR>
<BR>
I am unclear as to why it should make any difference between being deployed as a service or from the command-line interface. Please advise if this is a "ICE" issue, or an "OMERO" issue.<BR>
<BR>
Thanks,<BR>

<BR>
It looks like stdout/stderr redirection to files (using the Ice.StdOut/Ice.StdErr properties) does indeed not work properly on Windows for python applications. For some reasons the python process seems to hang when these options are specified. We're investigating this issue.<BR>
<BR>
In the meantime, as I recommended on the other thread, it's best if you don't set IceGrid.Node.Output when you using python servers. The stderr/stdout of the servers should go to the IceGrid node stderr/stdout instead.<BR>
<BR>
Cheers,<BR>
Benoit.</FONT></SPAN></P>
