Question

I looked though the guides but all I found was info on how to install on Windows using apache. Is there a simplified guide on how to install on IIS? I must install it with IIS otherwise my project will be shot down by upper management within my organization due to "security issues"

Any help appreciated

Steve, first tip - only do this if you know IIS and windows administration well. if you do - I made 2 summary topics on doing this, one for WinXP and another for Win2003 (i'm intransit between sydney and zurich, so you'll need to search, sorry)

basically, you need to

1. install IIS
2. install activestate perl including the IIS bindings
3. install gnutools (to get native built grep)
4. install twiki into the inetpub/www
5. rename the cgi's to end with .pl
6. configure twiki to use the .pl's
7. configure the paths of the required tools to where they work
8. some IIS and windows permission stuff
9. configure twiki to use RcsLite, RcsWrap is often very hard to get fully working

good luck - I stipped using windows (and thus IIS) about a year ago, but it did work until then :/
