I was able to setup a ProxyHost with IIS 6 / Geoserver on a local PC by
doing the following:

 

Install Python 2.5 or other version

    Install to c:\python25 or other directory

    Add path to system environment variable Path.

 

Add Python support on IIS

    On IIS right click the default website and select Properties

    On Home Directory, select Configuration and under Mapping select the Add
button

    In the Executable box, add "c:/python25/python.exe %s %s"

    In the Extension box, add the extension: ".py"

    Accept other defaults and select OK repeatedly

 

Modify ProxyHost file

    Copy the example ProxyHost script from
http://trac.openlayers.org/browser/trunk/openlayers/examples/proxy.cgi

    Place the example proxy.cgi file in the Website directory like
wwwroot/mybin

    Rename to proxy.cgi to proxy.py

    Change the first line #!/usr/bin/env python to #!C:/Python25/python.exe
-u

 

Edit the OpenLayers.ProxyHost variable to match that URL.  Given the above
IIS configuration:

    OpenLayers.ProxyHost = "/mybin/proxy.py?url=";

    

Open website from http://localhost/pathtowebsite/index.htm.  Does not work
from local file C:\pathtowebsite\index.htm.

Subject: [OpenLayers-Users] proxy OL, Geoserver and IIS

 

Hi list,

I have searched a bit at this list and found some threads. But it is not
complete clear if I understood it right.
My environment looks like:
windows xp (with IIS 6)
Geoserver at Tomcat. 
html-page is located at www folder of geoserver
(myserver:8080/www/myapp.html)

I want to make a getfeatureinfo from another web service (ArcGIS Server,
http://anotherserver/AGS/services/myapp/mapserver/wmsserver ) so I need a
proxy for that (or I am mixing something up?).

best link I´ve found was http://geographika.co.uk/a-proxy-for-iis-and-net I
think. 

So my question is: is it right that I have to install my proxy at IIS and
not at geoserver? Or did I another mistake?

Any comments welcome!

thanks
Sarah
