Try this and please report errors.
Start web2py as usual on port 8000
python web2py -p 8000 -i 127.0.0.1 -a 'password'
Create:
C:\inetpub\wwwroot\web2py
C:\inetpub\wwwroot\web2py\bin
Download http://managedfusion.com/ and extract
C:\inetpub\wwwroot\web2py\Web.config
Create C:\inetpub\wwwroot\web2py\ManagedFusion.Rewriter.txt
and in it write:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^yourdomain.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://localhost:8000$1 [P,QSA,L]

I am not a windows user s I am just reposting somebody else info.
I guess web2py goes in
C:\inetpub\wwwroot\web2py
and you start it from there
cd C:\inetpub\wwwroot\web2py
c:/python/python.exe web2py -p 8000 -i 127.0.0.1 -a 'password'
C:\inetpub\wwwroot\web2py\Web.config is the only file you need to
extract from http://managedfusion.com/

Perhaps check out web2pyslices.com -- http://www.web2pyslices.com/slices/take_slice/128 "Install web2py on Windows with IIS"
I haven't tried it (I just use the built-in rocket server or apache + mod_wsgi even on windows)
Good Luck

Hi,
I have seen you struggle setting up a deployment environment and
deploying your web2py app for some time now, and wonder why you not
simply decide to deploy your app at e.g Webfaction. Apart from my Mac
OS X Leopard Server I do have a hosting account there at $ 9.50 a
month, and in order to be able to access web2py's admin interface I
also have a dedicated IP address at $ 5.00 a month. Webfaction has a
script to install web2py, apart form that there documentation and
support are pretty good. I found that being new to web2py, probably
dynamic web development, and setting up a deployment environment is an
unproductive combination. After you've become more familiar with the
former the latter will be a piece of cake.
By the way, in production you do not use SQLite (see the book), but
Postgresql, MySQL, etc.
Kind regards,
Annet

You can do IIS with WSGI: http://code.google.com/p/isapi-wsgi/ so you
don't host two webservers, but only one.
Hope this helps.

SQLite is a file DB so it the file is locked when there is operation in process... I think it become pretty slow when multiple users are on at the same time... I am not sure if it only allow concurrent access management correctly...

From the sqlite site:
SQLite uses POSIX advisory locks to implement locking on Unix. On
Windows it uses the LockFile(), LockFileEx(), and UnlockFile()
system calls. SQLite assumes that these system calls all work as
advertised. If that is not the case, then database corruption can
result. One should note that POSIX advisory locking is known to be
buggy or even unimplemented on many NFS implementations (including
recent versions of Mac OS X) and that there are reports of locking
problems for network filesystems under Windows. Your best defense is
to not use SQLite for files on a network filesystem.
-- http://www.sqlite.org/lockingv3.html
sqlite2 is different from sqlite3, but seems to me best not to use
sqlite if you have the option for any other database.

Remco,
I'm another guy struggling with IIS.
Following the Receipt 2 for ISAPI and I'm lost at 2.3.2. If possible,
can you explain what I should do from here.
So far, virtual directory "ochibaapp" (Renamed it from appname) is
created under "Default Web Site". I have setup junction for C:\w2p
\application just like in the step and it's empty now.

Hello Omi!
first, junction (as you read in receipt) is needed for ability to launch development version of web2py on the same source.
anyway you can copy all web2py folder and syncronize them as needed
Step 2.3.2 Configure routes - is standard for web2py and described in the book.
it sets relative path to your application files.
In the beginning you should realise where are your application directories. You should check they are workable with standard web2py.py launcher.
Then check permissions for folders - so IIS can access them with given credentials (it is described in the receipt).
you should skip 2.3.4 - it has sense on big production server if any
As I see your isapi_web2py.py script cannot access application files (directory is empty)
try at first simple copy instead junction
In the end of 2.3.1 there are typos in path - slashes are escaped - be careful or just allow "All Unknown ISAPI Extentions".
for testing try in the section for interactive launch of isapi_web2py.py script

if __name__=='__main__':
importgluon.main
call from command line - to be sure gluon is on the path and accessible
Write here your directory configuration if you are still lost.
Think about web2py directory as a single ready application which just should plugged to IIS.

sherdim, Thank you so much for your reply !!!!
To be honest, I cannot really understand routes even I read the book.
I don't even know if I should copy the applications under web2py
folder and/or where to ...
Here's my directories:
-----------------------------------------------
python:
C:\Python25
web2py:
C:\Python25\web2py
web2py appllications:
C:\Python25\web2py\applications
Created by 2.3. Configure WSGI handler:
C:\w2p\applications (Empty)
is link to...
C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\applications (Empty)
I start web2py like this:
c:\Python25\web2py>python web2py.py
Virtual Directory on IIS
"ochibaapp" (renamed from "appname") under "Default Web Site"

Onmi, it is not clear - whether you have separate domain for the site under IIS. if no - then you can use default pathes.
Goodluck!
To be honest, I cannot really understand routes even I read the book.
routes.py is not related to deployment on IIS. You can skip routes configuration upto you need/want it.
for beginners I would suppose such if your app called "ochibaapp", not "welcome":
========
routers = dict(
BASE = dict(default_application='ochibaapp',
domains={ 'ochiba.com' : 'ochibaapp' },
root_static = ['favicon.ico', 'robots.txt', 'sitemap.xml'],
),
)

Here's my directories:
-----------------------------------------------
web2py:
C:\Python25\web2py
I am not sure - will python include gluon from this dir automatically?
More advantageous place - \Python25\Lib\site-packages\gluon
So my proposal - copy gluon dir to C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\
More advantageous place - \Python25\Lib\site-packages\gluon
So my proposal - copy gluon dir to C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\
web2py appllications:
C:\Python25\web2py\applications
so C:\w2p\ in the slice become C:\Python25\web2py in your current placement
Created by 2.3. Configure WSGI handler:
C:\w2p\applications (Empty)
is link to...
C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\applications (Empty)
reverse order!!! link (junction) the second one to C:\Python25\web2py\applications
I start web2py like this:
c:\Python25\web2py>python web2py.py
this can be used for development and debugging
Virtual Directory on IIS
"ochibaapp" (renamed from "appname") under "Default Web Site"
this app must point to C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\_ochibaapp.dll
or whatever name you used (through wildcard mapping in the app config)
(According to name agreement - DLL must be named _filename.dll for filename.py )
So in the file C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\ochibaapp.py you can call gluon.main.wsgibase
or whatever name you used (through wildcard mapping in the app config)
(According to name agreement - DLL must be named _filename.dll for filename.py )
So in the file C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\ochibaapp.py you can call gluon.main.wsgibase

Thank you again! I'm ALMOST there.
I finished all the settings and excited to see the result at

Do you have any idea where I should check ?
I use IIS 7.5 with IIS 6 Management Cimpatibility.

Filter and Extension are installed and working properly.
The description for Event ID 4097 from source ISAPI Filter or

is not installed on your local computer or the installation is

Hello, Omi!
Do you have any idea where I should check ?
I use IIS 7.5 with IIS 6 Management Cimpatibility.
1. Check you app is working through usual web2py startup.
2. if you did junction folder - set full access for IIS_WPG for the target folder "...\applications"
also check access for _ochibaapp.dll
3. check app pool in the IIS admin snap-in - most default setting are good but may be they were changed
And the main thing - relaunch all IIS services after every reconfig (restart IIS Admin service).
And remember relaunch the apppool after app changes - because IIS keeps your app ready in memory for a while

I checked all including your suggesion but it just didn't work. I keep getting HTTP Error 500.
Windows event says "Failed to import callback module 'ochibaapp'"
Have you successfully working on IIS 7.5 ?
If not, I need to say there are maybe some compatible issue with isapi-wsgi module in web2py.

Hope, you will be satisfied with Apache.
I have other sites/apps on the IIS, so I wanted web2py on the same platform.
If you had default isapi_wsgi example app working - then no incompatibility with dll (32/64 bit issues etc).
if any webserver is proper for you - you can use default web2py rocket as well IMHO.
Good luck
