[Qgis-psc] [Qgis-user] QGIS Sponsor Offer

[René-Luc Dhont]

Hi Mats,

You can take a look at this documentation:
https://github.com/3liz/lizmap-documentation/blob/master/source/install/windows.rst

It has been written to install Lizmap Web Client on Windows but also 
Apache and QGIS Server.
This documentation could probably help you on Windows Server.

Regards,
René-Luc
