Omero server installation problem Win64

Hi,
I enconter a very basic problem while installing omero server under XP 64.
When I run in the shell the command

bin\omero config set omero.db.name myDatabase

I have a problem of dll, the program seems to tell me that I try to run a win 32 dll.
I checked I have installed everything in win 64.

however the python2.7 dlls for 64 version are indeed installed in the system32 directory.
It seems that this is the origin of the bug. However I don't know How i can fix python2.7 installation for Win64.
Strange that a 64bit application is installed in the system32 directory


as It seems a very basic step in installation, Ithink I must miss something ovious but essential, however I have no clue.

thanks for your help

Gilles

In order to use the pre-built Ice binaries from ZeroC you must use the Python version that is specified in the Windows installation instructions. These are 32-bit binaries, we have no 64-bit binaries for the Python infrastructure on Windows. As the server is Java and runs inside the Java Virtual Machine however it is 64-bit as long as you have installed the 64-bit JVM.
