Here the instructions posted by Patrick = McCormick in 2009: Subject:[WebDNA] Installing Windows CICADA under IIS7/2008 Server = Enterprise 64bit From:Patrick McCormick I managed to get WebDNA v6.2 CICADA working under Windows Server 2008=20 Enterprise, 64 bit. This OS supports running 32 bit .dlls if properly=20 configured. I'm posting the steps here in case anyone else needs it,=20 and because I'll forget and need to look this up again. 1) Before installing WebDNA, you need to make sure that you have=20 already installed IIS 6 Metabase Compatibility, ISAPI Extension=20 Support and ISAPI Filters on the server. Make sure you can get to the=20 default web page with a browser and figure that out before proceeding. 2) Install the Windows CICADA package. It will attempt to set up and=20 configure the services and will likely generate an error message. We=20 will update the installer in the future, but until then, please follow=20= the rest of these steps. 3) Open the Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager. 4) Double-click =93Handler Mappings=94 from the main IIS screen. 5) Click on =93Add Script Map.=94 6) Set up the handler mapping for c:\inetpub\scripts\WebCatalogEngine\=20= $WebCat.dll with extensions *.tpl, *.tmpl, *.htm, *.html, plus/or any=20 other suffixes and check to allow the ISAPI extension and execution of=20= scripts. 7) Double-click =93ISAPI & CGI Restrictions=94 on the main IIS screen.=20= Right-click on PHP and select =93Edit Feature Settings=94 and check = =93Allow=20 unspecified ISAPI modules.=94 8) Right-click on the Default Application Pool (or the one you want to=20= use if more than one) and select =93Advanced Settings.=94 9) Change the =93Enable 32-bit Applications=94 to True. Click OK. This=20= spawns the App Pool in 32-bit mode, so if you have other modules that=20 need to be run in 64-bit mode, best to separate the website into two=20 App Pools: one 32-bit and one 64-bit. 10) Restart the server. -Pat Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
