[pycsw-devel] Running on Windows 2008 Server IIS7

I added system added environment variable for 'HTTP_HOST' and
'REQUEST_URI'.  That appears to have gotten me further along.  But, I
have another hurdle to clear it appears.  See below.

 

I've got simple test python scripts working in the same web directory as
cws.py.  They can be seen here:

http://dev.insideidaho.org/pycsw/test.py and
http://dev.insideidaho.org/pycsw/test2.py.  So, I think (fingers
crossed) that I have the web server configured correctly but maybe I am
overlooking something.

 

When I use the pycsw tester to try make a GetCapabilities request I get
a 502 error.   Pycsw tester is here:
http://dev.insideidaho.org/pycsw/tester/index.html

 

When I run pycsw on the localhost machine I get this response with more
details:

Note that "sqlalchemy' show up in the list when I use "help('modules')" 

 

It seems like the crux of the issue is that IIS7 doesn't like the way
the HTTP headers being returned by the pycsw script(s).  Maybe a syntax
issue?  I'm not sure.  I'm definitely no expert.  Since I can run the
test.py scripts I'm hoping that the web server is configured properly.
If not I'm not quite sure where to look at this point.  But, maybe it is
still an IIS7 configuration issue.

 

Ideas on how to troubleshoot this or get it working? 

 

Thanks much!

Hi Bruce,

Yes, it seems that this issue is Windows specific. The "HTTP_HOST"
variable is not set in the environment variables.

Please try this from a Python console:

import os
os.environ

and send the output.

Thanks,
Angelos

Hi Angelos,

 

Yes, thank you, I was able to get it working using the syntax
C:\\www\\pycsw

 

I've run into this issue now:

 

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "C:\criticalApplications\console\pycsw\pycsw-1.0.0\csw.py", line
40, in <module>

    CSW.dispatch()

line 161, in dispatch

    (os.environ['HTTP_HOST'], os.environ['REQUEST_URI'])

  File "C:\Python27\lib\os.py", line 423, in __getitem__

    return self.data[key.upper()]

KeyError: 'HTTP_HOST'

>>> 

 

I think I'm close but I'm not sure where to look to try to track this
down.  I wonder if it is an IIS7 issue?

Hello Bruce,

Did you try the windows path like c:\path\to\pycsw ?

Hello,

 

I'm attempting to get pycsw running on a Windows 2008 box with IIS7.  I
have all the supporting libraries installed and I have SQLite3.  I'll
preface this by saying I have pretty limited experience with python.  

 

I've changed the first line of csw.py to: #!/Python27/python -u

 

At this point I need edit default.cfg, correct?

 

What is the correct syntax for:  home=/var/www/pycsw on Windows?  Is it
like: c:\path\to\defaul.cfg?

 

Thank you for any assistance in getting this running on my Windows box.
I really appreciate it.
