Hello Everyone,
Please I need tips and common errors to this environment:  
Django 1.3 + Windows Server 2003 + IIS6 + MSSQL 2005
Have anyone tested this project?
What is the best way to install to setup a Django Webapp in that?
Thanks!

Is there a real need for using Windows Server, IIS or MSSQL? I have had really bad experiences with MS stuff in general.

If you are tied up to the Windows platform (not that it is bad, it does some good stuff, actually, it's just different) I suggest that you consider using other solution stack.

If it's a must that Django + IIS + SqlServer, then you will need to sweat and work a lot to get your project running.

The constraints on computer environment are harder to handle (the server may not be yours, your admin won't approve a linux install, licenses already bought, etc.) so suggest that you take some time and see if it is a must that this stack remains in place.

If you can't change your environment then take a look for something like ASP.MVC. It's not Django, but it's a good MVC framework. A more common MS approach is SQL Server + ASP.MVC + nHibernate (for ORM).

I hope that helps.

Hi,

there is a isapi library in the PyWin32 project (http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/). I use that. For SQL Server connection I use django-mssql (http://code.google.com/p/django-mssql/).

I know it is not the same version you have mentioned, but have you tried http://www.helicontech.com/ they have deployed django over IIS 7, and it is well documented
