+
+Microsoft IIS
+#############
+
+Bugzilla works with IIS as a normal CGI application. These instructions assume
+that you are using Windows 7 Ultimate x64. Procedures for other versions are
+probably similar.
+
+Begin by starting Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager.
+:guilabel:`Start` --> :guilabel:`Administrators Tools` -->
+:guilabel:`Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager`. Or run the command:
+
+:command:`inetmgr`
+
+Create a New Application
+========================
+
+Expand your :guilabel:`Server` until the :guilabel:`Default Web Site` shows
+its children.
+
+Right-click :guilabel:`Default Web Site` and select
+:guilabel:`Add Application` from the menu.
+
+Unde :guilabel:`Alias`, enter the alias for the website. This is the path
+below the domain where you want Bugzilla to appear.
+
+Under :guilabel:`Physical Path`, enter the path to Bugzilla,
+:file:`C:\\Bugzilla`.
+
+When finished, click :guilabel:`OK`.
+
+Configure the Default Document
+==============================
+
+Click on the Application that you just created. Double-click on
+:guilabel:`Default Document`, and click :guilabel:`Add` underneath the
+Actions menu.
+
+Under :guilabel:`Name`, enter ``index.cgi``.
+
+All other default documents can be removed for this application.
+
+.. warning:: Do not delete the default document from the
+   :guilabel:`Default Website`.
+
+Add Handler Mappings
+====================
+
+Ensure that you are at the Default Website. Under :guilabel:`IIS`,
+double-click :guilabel:`Handler Mappings`. Under :guilabel:`Actions`, click
+:guilabel:`Add Script Map`. You need to do this twice.
+
+For the first one, set the following values (replacing paths if necessary):
+
+* :guilabel:`Request Path`: ``*.pl``
+* :guilabel:`Executable`: ``C:\Perl\bin\perl.exe "%s% %s%``
+* :guilabel:`Name`: ``Perl Script Map``
+
+At the prompt select :guilabel:`No`.
+
+.. note:: The ActiveState Perl installer may have already created an entry for
+   .pl files that is limited to ``GET,HEAD,POST``. If so, this mapping should
+   be removed, as Bugzilla's .pl files are not designed to be run via a web
+   server.
+
+.. todo:: My `source <https://wiki.mozilla.org/Installing_under_IIS_7.5>`_ says
+   to add a mapping for .pl, but that's sort of contradicted by the note above
+   from a different source. Which is right?
+
+For the second one, set the following values (replacing paths if necessary):
+
+* :guilabel:`Request Path`: ``*.cgi``
+* :guilabel:`Executable`: ``C:\Perl\bin\perl.exe "%s% %s%``
+* :guilabel:`Name`: ``CGI Script Map``
+
+At the prompt select :guilabel:`No`.
+
+Bugzilla Application
+====================
+
+Ensure that you are at the Bugzilla Application. Under :guilabel:`IIS`,
+double-click :guilabel:`Handler Mappings`. Under :guilabel:`Actions`, click
+:guilabel:`Add Script Map`.
+
+Set the following values (replacing paths if necessary):
+
+* :guilabel:`Request Path`: ``*.cgi``
+* :guilabel:`Executable`: ``C:\Perl\bin\perl.exe -x"C:\Bugzilla" -wT "%s" %s``
+* :guilabel:`Name`: ``Bugzilla``
+
+At the prompt select :guilabel:`No`.
+
+.. todo:: The Executable lines in the three things above are weirdly
+   inconsistent. Is this intentional? My source is `this page <https://wiki.mozilla.org/Installing_under_IIS_7.5>`_.
+
+.. todo:: `LpSolit <http://lpsolit.wordpress.com/2010/10/22/make-bugzilla-work-with-iis7-easy/>`_
+   suggests there's a step to do with authorizing CGI modules. Where does that fit?
+
+Common Problems
+===============
+
+Bugzilla runs but it's not possible to log in
+  You've probably configured IIS to use ActiveState's ISAPI DLL -- in other
+  words you're using PerlEx, or the executable IIS is configured to use is
+  :file:`PerlS.dll` or :file:`Perl30.dll`.
+
+  Reconfigure IIS to use :file:`perl.exe`.
+
+IIS returns HTTP 502 errors
+  You probably forgot the ``-T`` argument to :file:`perl` when configuring the
+  executable in IIS.
+
+XMLRPC interface not working with IIS
+  This is a known issue. See :bug:`708252`.
