Install askbot on windows under iis

I already managed to install askbot on windows and it runs with python manage.py runserver localhost:8088 but I cant run it on iis, did any of you achieve such an epic quest?

It's easier to find instructions on the web if you search for IIS and Django (rather than AskBot, which uses the Django framework). Here's one such article: http://serverfault.com/questions/366348/how-to-set-up-django-with-iis-8 . The IIS solutions generally use some form of FastCGI. I just did a Windows install with Apache (with mod_wsgi), have not yet had the time to compare it with IIS. The Apache configuration was more challenging than I anticipated but I did get it to work. It is unfortunate that the web server configuration for AskBot can take much more time than AskBot itself.
