Working on this at the moment using a .NET handler. It is an experiment
really, I assume an isapi filter is a better solution performance wise, but
I''m not good enough with C++ to write one. Anyway, the nice thing about
the
.NET handler is that I''m able to create a real easy deployment on any
windows box with .net framework installed. So no hassle with rewrite
engines, mixed setup instructions per platform (which is the case with the
current fcgi solution) and flexible deployment in subfolders (yay!). Just
some files and a folder, that''s the idea right now.
I''m aiming for a first version this month, I have a holiday planned and
am
not allowed to bring a laptop, so this does not help the project.
I''ll keep you updated.

Subject: [Rails] Will SCGI work with IIS6?
SCGI is the wave of the future, (IMHO). Does anyone know what it would take
to get it to work with IIS6?

Can hardly wait for the unveiling. Sorry about your laptop sitting there all alone.

I looked at this very briefly and would encourage you to pursue where I left off. What you need is an ISAPI dll that can attach to the SCGI process. I came across this posibility: http://isapi-wsgi.python-hosting.com/ which is an ISAPI to WSGI implementation. I down loaded it but stopped because it wasn''t exactly what I needed. I could What is WSGI? http://www.python.org/peps/pep-0333.html However, they are using the following script: http://pythonpaste.org/trac/file/WSGIKit/trunk/wsgikit/scgiserver.py?rev=2351 which appears to the top doc to be a SCGI -> WSGI gateway instead of at WSGI -> SCGI gateway which is what we would need. So, looking at http://isapi-wsgi.python-hosting.com/ they are using an ISAPI python lib in ActivePython. Looking that this lib show that they are using a modified isapi redirector from the jakarta tomcat connectors code: http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/jakarta-tomcat-connectors/jk/native/isapi/ Knowing this, tonight my intent is to compile this and get it to call into a simple ruby script. Once this is done, we can write the SCGI client side of equation. Hence: IIS -> load ISAPI -> redirect to SCGI client -> attach to SCGI server I''ll let you know tomorrow how it goes. -- Tom Jordan On 10/6/05, Larry Kelly <ldk2005-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> wrote:> SCGI is the wave of the future, (IMHO).

This would be wonderful if we can get this running on IIS. If there''s a way I can contribute, let me know. (I''ve got about 10 IIS servers that I manage and would be able to test and write docs. _______________________________________________ Rails mailing list Rails-1W37MKcQCpIf0INCOvqR/iCwEArCW2h5@public.gmane.org http://lists.rubyonrails.org/mailman/listinfo/rails
I''ve just registered the ruby-isapi project on rubyforge. Give me until about Monday or so to get something compilable up on it. My goal is to walk down the same path that the python-isapi project did. http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/docs/ActivePython/2.3/pywin32/html/isapi/doc/isapi.html After we get this isapi filter to load the ruby virtual machine, it should be short work in writing the scgi-client side of the equation in ruby itself. If you have a rubyforge account, I can add you if you want. -- Tom.
