.. _iis:
Microsoft IIS
#############
Bugzilla works with IIS as a normal CGI application. These instructions assume
that you are using Windows 7 or Windows 10. 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:`Yes`.
.. 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.
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:`Yes`.
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:`Yes`.
Now it's time to restart the IIS server to take these changes into account.
From the top-level menu, which contains the name of your machine, click
:guilabel:`Restart` under :guilabel:`Manage Server`. Or run the command:
:command:`iisreset`
Enable Rewrite Rules for REST
=============================
REST URLs are usually of the form http://.../bugzilla/rest/version instead of
http://.../bugzilla/rest.cgi/version. To let IIS redirect rest/ URLs to rest.cgi,
you need to download and install the
`URL Rewrite extension for IIS <http://www.iis.net/downloads/microsoft/url-rewrite>`_.
Direct download links are available at the bottom of the page for both x86 and
x64 Windows.
Once installed, you open the IIS Manager again and go to your Bugzilla
Application. From here, double-click :guilabel:`URL Rewrite`. Then click
:guilabel:`Add Rule(s)` under the :guilabel:`Actions` menu and click
:guilabel:`Blank rule` in the :guilabel:`Inbound rules` section.
Fill the fields as follows. Other fields do not need to be edited.
* :guilabel:`Name`: ``REST``
* :guilabel:`Pattern`: ``^rest/(.*)$``
* :guilabel:`Rewrite URL`: ``rest.cgi/{R:1}``
There is no need to restart IIS. Changes take effect immediately.
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.
