Re: Install reviewboard on IIS 7

2010-01-15 Thread Christian Hammond
Hi,

Yeah, I've heard that IIS can be tricky. I have no experience myself, and
Review Board doesn't support it out of the box. If someone did get it to
work and was willing to maintain it, we'd be happy to have some instructions
in the docs and generate config files from rb-site, but it's not something
we're planning to do ourselves any time soon.

My recommendation in these cases is usually an Ubuntu-based Linux VM running
Apache or lighttpd.

 if it'll help anyone, I went Apache route in the end.

 Python doesn't seem to support FastCGI under IIS. just CGI with Python
 works, but when trying to launch ReviewBoard using CGI (look for
 django cgi scripts on the web), I either got browser error, Python
 error or page would begin to load, but turn into garbage.

 Either way, it's just too damn hard. Unless something changes, I'd
 recommend not wasting time, but using Apache (or lighttpd, but it's
 not as well supported under windows).
