... but I succeeded earlier today, so I know it can be done.
IIS 7.5 on Windows Server 2008 R2
I have a Python CGI script (this is a low-demand, internal server) that I want to run under its own application pool. The script is in a subdirectory: C:\inetpub\wwwroot\subdir\script.py
I have created an application pool: MyPool, No Managed Code.
In IIS Manager, under Sites, Default Web Site, I right-click on the subdir folder and Convert to Application:
- Alias: subdir
- Application pool: MyPool
- Physical path: C:\inetpub\wwwroot\subdir
I have a "whoami" command in the CGI script. Earlier today I succeeded in getting the script to run (in a different subdirectory name, which I was using as a sandbox) as user IIS AppPool\MyPool. Now, when I invoke it, it runs as user NT Authority\IUSR.
Grr. I know it can be done, because I had it working in my experimental script. I have Binged and Googled and sworn heartily, but none of it seems to be helping.
Thanks in advance.
