I got it working by running the following python snippet:

from scrapy.cmdline import execute
import sys
sys.argv = ['scrapy', 'shell', 'http://scrapy.org']
execute()

If you get the following error:

MultipleInstanceError: Multiple incompatible subclass instances of InteractiveShellEmbed are being created.

then you have to add to the scrapy.cfg the following line:

shell=python
