IIS 6 with CGI --> Web Service Extension
Hello.

I am running a python application under IIS 6.0 which requires that CGI extensions be enabled. Rather than enable all "unknown" CGI extensions I would like to create a specific web service extension for python.

The required path to Python for my web application to work is: C:\python\python.exe %s %s

The issue is that the interface for adding a new web service extension under IIS 6 does not accept the switches...and I have tried many permutations of quotes/single quotes to handle this.

Anyone have a clue?

This was a really tough tone. I thought I would offer the solution in case anyone else had this problem.

The web service had to be created using a dos shell, the syntax of which is:

iisext /AddFile "path including %s%s" 0 [web service name] 1 [webservice name] 1 [web service name]

good luck

We just ran in to this today. I'm trying your solution now but when I run it under DOS I get a message saying that WScript can't run the command. If I try to run it from the command prompt it tells me that it can't find iisext. Any thoughts?
