Hey Ken,

I tried running Trac 0.6 on WinXP with IIS 5.1 some time ago. I got everything setup by creating some virtual directories instead of the Aliases that you would use in Apache. You would also have to setup Python to work with IIS as well so that the cgi scripts could work.

After doing all that though, I had major issues as I was getting alot of IIS Out of Process issues with the COM+ component that IIS uses. My COM+ catalog got currupted and I could not get it re-installed without having to reinstall Windows (via the upgrade option so none of my current files were screwed).

I haven't tried it since but maybe when I get some time I will try and pin point what exactly was causing the issue. Before all that started to happen though, a funny tihng was happening where whenever I tried to create/modify a wiki page, it was being added to the Trac DB in excess of 20 times!! I guess the IIS process pooling was causing all that, I'm not sure but I suspect.

If you get it up and running successfully, please do share :)
