Does Mapserver 4.8.3 work with windows 2000 and IIS 5

[Andrew Krakowski]

Hi Kris,

Have you been able to generate the "No query information to decode. 
QUERY_STRING is set, but empty." message?

Have you read the online IIS MapServer instructions?  There are a couple 
you can find.

I'm not sure the difference between IIS 5 and 6 but I've succeeded with 
MapServer 4.8.3 working on IIS 6.0 on XP.

Create a cgi-bin directory in your Inetpub directory and copy the 
contents of the ms4w\Apache\cgi-bin directory into it.

In IIS add this directory as a virtual directory to your web-site. 
Right-click Properties under the cgi-bin Virtual Directory and select 
Scripts and Executables for Executables permission in the Virtual 
Directory Tab.

When you right click the mapserv.exe file in IIS and select Browse in 
IIS you should get the above message.

Hope that helps; if not let me know.
Andrew
