IIS Permission Problem (Mapserver Demo)

[Bart van den Eijnden]

If you don't know anything about IIS you should start reading up on that ......

IIS has a Manager application, in which you can get the properties of the cgi-bin directory. Part of that dialog has a select box in it in which you need to select Script and Executables.

Best regards,

Hi Everyone,
I'm still having some problems with the Mapserv.exe on Windows 2000, it is still attempting to download when i click 'initialize' on the 'demo_init.html' file. I do not know anything about 'IIS', Scripts and Executables etc .. How do you prevent this?. The 'cgi-bin' folder has r/w permissions.
Thanks all.
Paul

I'm new to Mapserver and i'm trying to get the demo to work. When i 'initialize' the demo_init.html file the Mapserv.exe attempts to download to my pc. The supporting documentation explains this is due to an IIS 'permissions' problem. Can anyone explain what i need to do to get it working.
Many thanks,

Paul Shapley
