I'm testing Neso 2.4 on a portable with Windows 7 and installed it in
C:\Program Files\neso-2.4.0.
After the Hello World tutorial (see earlier posts) I'm trying to create my
own module now. And I dit not get mymodule visible in the list of modules
as admin, whatever I tried.
After some frustrating time to check everything; I suddenly remembered what
I also experienced with the HelloWorld tutorial, and it worked for mymodule
as well:

mymodule only became visible when I copied the files in Windows 7
VirtualStore (C:\Users\Me\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program
Files\neso-2.4.0\trytond\trytond\modules\mymodule) to its non-virtual spot
(C:\Program Files\neso-2.4.0\trytond\trytond\modules\mymodule).

So it appears to me the trytond server does not interact with the Windows 7
filesystem as it should (according to Microsoft, since the VirtualStore
system should be 100% transparent to applications).

Is this a known issue? Suggestions?

test and work in unix SO.

Setting up a linux VM for testing. OK; let's see. I might consider that.
But at the end, this software would need to run in existing environments,
which are Windows based. Sorry, it's not up to me to decide or change that.

So this is a fundamental question for me. The Tryton client is available on
Windows: good. Running a PostgreSQL database server on Windows is possible:
good.
Is a migration of the Tryton server to Windows in the pipeline? If yes,
setting up a temporary test environment with a Virtual Linux might be worth
the effort.
Why? Our organisation will not migrate to another server platform soon, I'm
sure.

If not, I might be willing to help to get this done if there is any
cooperation possible?

Some existing environments are windows based indeed.

I don't think there is a lot of work to do in order to make trytond
work quite well under windows. Trytond is written exclusively in
python and thus is portable probably quite easily on windows.

But I am afraid not a lot of people (if any) here are doing any effort
to actually port trytond. Nevertheless, you can always ask for some
advices if people have any ideas about your question you will receive
answers.

If the patches are well done, I don't see why they should not be
accepted.

Indeed there is nothing to change to make it works on windows because it
does (neso is barely a server run on Windows).
But to get the best experience out of Tryton on Windows, you must setup
a Python environment and install all the dependencies using easy_install
(but some will not work because they require a C compiler, they must be
installed using pre-compiled setup.exe).
But definetely, Neso is not the best environment to develop on.
