Run Google App Engine:

Allow dev_appserver to check for updates on startup? (Y/n): y
dev_appserver will check for updates on startup. To change this
setting, edit ~/.appcfg_nag

Hey, I'm thinking that leading period in ".appcfg_nag" may be the
problem. Fine for 'nix, but not so much for Windows.

You can create .files from the cmd shell, just a bit more difficult
from the explorer.

c:> echo foo > .foo
c:> more < .foo
foo

c:>

Is this possibly related to http://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=27?
That is, is your HOMEDRIVE gone?

This issue is history. It seems it was related to the way I ran
dev_appserver.py using elevated privileges with "Run As".

Thanks to everyone who replied.
