[Mapserver-users] Running Mapserver on IIS

[Swaminathan, Gayathri]

Hi:
The cgi-bin directory should have execute permissions, so that mapserv.exe
(copied under cgi-bin is executable).
Also, make sure your mapserver works right, by running it from command line,
If you entered "mapserv" in command line, it should say something like,

"This script can only be used to decode form results and
should be initiated as a CGI process via a httpd server."

Did you create proj directory as explained? Did you copy dlls to
<windir>/system32 and register them?

And did you set up tmp as mentioned?

Let me know how goes it?
Thanks,
Gayathri

Is there a good tutorial on setting this up on IIS? I've tried and can't 
seem to get it to work.   I'm not that familiar with IIS, so that could 
be the problem.  I think it may be a problem with setting up the cgi-bin 
directory, not sure though.  After installing mapserver according to the 
directions in the readme file (this is mapserver 4 beta1), I downloaded 
the demo application, and whenever I try to initialize it, it says page 
can't be found, even though it's pointing to the correct directory.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
