The error is that the word 'key' is not a valid python statement: the file 
concerned is probably corrupted/truncated or has been modified by gremlins or 
inept users...

Open up file .\base\serverman\current\registrymgr.py, and post the surrounding 
code found near line 54 - then we'll have some context to work from.   Is 
this a custom app or part of Zope itself? Have you asked anyone on any of the 
Zope mailing lists or forums?
