Rails sites on IIS?

nginx runs on Windows nowadays too.  It's a little less intimidating.   
However, I expect they want IIS because of all the management tools,  
quick web search reveals you could do it via FastCGI.  Unfortunately  
Ruby performance is known to lag on Windows.

The easy answer for this is to use the typical reverse-proxy to mongrel, 
thin, or some other Ruby application server.  Most web-servers have an 
option to do that.

You shouldn't have a problem doing it. One of our clients used to be
on IIS and SQL Server with Radiant.
You'll need to purchase isapi_rewrite from
http://www.isapirewrite.com/ or
http://www.helicontech.com/isapi_rewrite/ unless there is some other
way out there to easily do it now. But it was well worth the money
when we had it.

At the time we were running versions ranging in 0.5 - 0.6 of Radiant
and had IIS as a front end to Mongrel.

We just successfully deployed a rails project with the same requirements using 
tomcat, IIS, and jruby on rails.

2009-09-10 Thread Istvan Hoka
In a similar situation, I have done the reverse: run Apache on port 80
and proxy requests to IIS running on another port. The IIS port is
protected from ouside access by firewall. Rails applications were
running on Mongrel with mod_balancer and managed with the
mongrel_service gem to make the apps spin up on reboot.

I did find a PDF online from back in 2006 that described that process, but
didn't know if that was still the right way to do it. I know nothing about
IIS so, if you don't mind, I may be picking your brain if I run into
problems.
