I have a Windows XP machine and noticed when i try and run the
deploy2iis i
get an error (see below). Looking at the source of the error its trying
to
do something with the user IIS_IUSRS which isn’t a user under Windows
XP. Is
this by design? I know Windows XP is old and all, but getting work to
upgrade isnt possible right now. I changed the user to the IIS user
under
Windows XP and now it says it can connect to the server but it just cant
view the page, 403 Error, it created the site in IIS. Any ideas?

Error:
C:\Code>deploy2iis myapp C:\Code

Code:
def set_permissions app_path
dfr = FileSystemRights.full_control
gan = ‘IIS_IUSRS’

unless acl_exists? app_path, dfr, gan
add_acl app_path, dfr, gan
end
end

Thanks,

The deploy2iis hasn’t been tested on IIS6; I can provide a better error
message in the meantime. The application generated by rack2aspnet should
run
on IIS6, so let me know if at least that works for you. deploy2iis is
just
intended to do the one-time setup required to run the application in
IIS; I
can also include the manual steps in the error message when IIS7 isn’t
installed.

If you’re interested in tracking down some of the issues on IIS6 and
reporting more directed bugs / submitting patches, I’d be more than
happy to
support configuring IIS6 for IronRuby Rack.

Jimmy,
The rack2aspnet worked fine. I was able to use Cassini to load and run
the
simple app, but for some reason it wont run under IIS6. I will try and
track
down what i can and see why its not working. It may be a configuration
issue
on my iis server. I will keep looking and see what i can come up with.
