Missing local commands after running zopeskel on windows

Question

I try to create an archetype with zopskel/paster on my newly installed plone 4.2. I have adjusted the buildout.cfg (see below) to get zopeskel.exe and paster.exe generated in the bin folder.

Howerver when I run zopeskel as follows (in develop-eggs folder): ..\bin\zopeskel.exe archetype I get an IOError (see below for output)

From what I understand I should now have local commands when running paster (like add). However when I now run paster (in the develop-eggs/nortek.test03) folder there is no commands.

Is there a bug/flaw in the zopeskel or am I doing something wrong? How do I proceed?

    Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Plone42\bin\zopeskel-script.py", line 16, in <module>
    zopeskel.zopeskel_script.run()
  File "c:\plone42\eggs\zopeskel-2.21.2-py2.6.egg\zopeskel\zopeskel_script.py", line 397, in run

My buildout.cfg is identical to default except the following:

parts =
    zeo
    instance
    run-instance
    run-zeo
    service
    service-zeo
    zopeskel

[zopeskel]
recipe = zc.recipe.egg
unzip = true
eggs =
    Paste
    PasteScript
    ZopeSkel

[EDIT] I tried to follow the instructions in the link provided. However there are several problems that occure: * no paste script is generated in bin folder * I still get exactly the same IOError issue * There are no local commands

I put output from the different commands I ran onto this link: http://pastie.org/4664202

So please help me as I still have the same problem

I still get the same problem. (please see comments above) – Jardar Sep 05 '12 at 12:51
Can you check if you have any ZopeSkel packages installed in system Python folder? They might take override and must be deleted. – Mikko Ohtamaa Sep 05 '12 at 16:43
I have removed all zopeskel eggs and executable and ran the buildout again. However I still do not get paster.exe generated and I still get an error when at the end when running zopeskel – Jardar Sep 07 '12 at 08:49
I have still not solved this issue? Anybody that has some suggestions? – Jardar Sep 14 '12 at 11:25
Sorry. It is most likely something to do with Windows. I reported this issue in ZopeSkel bug tracker, but we have not solution yet. – Mikko Ohtamaa Sep 14 '12 at 12:24
