You have to run buildout from the level above.

C:\Plone41\bin> cd ..
C:\Plone41> bin\buildout.exe

Then it should work. When the buildout command is run, it looks for the buildout.cfg in the same working directory.

Also, I should mention that this list is for discussing things related to documentation. If you need further assistance for issues like this you should use plone-users or stack overflow.

documentation. If you need further assistance for issues like this you

To make it related, one relevant doc is here (looks to be correct):

http://plone.org/documentation/kb/installing-add-ons-quick-how-to/

Then in-depth:

http://plone.org/documentation/kb/using-buildout-on-windows/

If you find any invalid documentation please point it to us and we'll do
some book burning.

Also this information is quite relevant. Although it needs some
editing and validation from community.

https://docs.google.com/document/d/19-o6yYJWuvw7eyUiLs_b8br4C-Kb8RcyHcQSIf_4Pb4/edit

I would like to get this info out of google docs. But until it lands
elsewhere I will continue to post the URL

Thanks guys, think I found a solution. I copied the buildout.cfg to the bin
folder and all seem to be fine.
Sorry for being the wrong forum

You are doing it wrong. Please do as in the instructions to avoid further
problems. We did not wrote those instructions for nothing :(
