  Re: Error message : Unsupported REQUEST_METHOD Reply Contact Hi, I have installed the CGI module, it works fine when I use HTTP request. What do you mean the security of CGI app? I let CGI module have the permissions of read, script and write. I add all my CGI programs into ISAPI and CGI restrictions and allow them. I also set the ACLs of folders with everyone full control. Could you let me know what settings I missed? Thanks.

  Re: Error message : Unsupported REQUEST_METHOD Reply Contact Hi kstyler, Could you specify what CGI module? I have chance to verify Python CGI with IIS 7 using SSL today. It is OK. So I don't think it is general issue. Your module could have compatible issue with Vista. And are you able to generate some trace information with the CGI module.

  Re: Error message : Unsupported REQUEST_METHOD Reply Contact Hi, I use native CGI module, %windir%\system32\inetsrv\cgi.dll. My ap run well on Vista, but it can't use https on Longhorn Beta 3, http is fine. My program config ssl by editing metabase data, however, it failed when add key, the error code is 0x800700B7. I use iis60rkt.exe, metabase explorer to add the key, it got error too. It told me the reason is "The handle is invalid."

  Re: Error message : Unsupported REQUEST_METHOD Reply Contact Sorry, I meant the CGI program, the .exe executable which called by the IIS CGI module (cgi.dll), not the native cgi.dll, just like php-cgi.exe or python.exe. And the operation system should be Longhorn Beta 3 not Vista. OK, if metabase is your issue. There is an optional setup component called Admin Base Objects (ABO) in IIS 7.0 which allows legacy configuration scripts and applications to continue running with the new configuration system in IIS 7.0. Check this: How to use Metabase Compatibility with IIS7, hope this is useful. BTW, 0x800700B7 should be "Cannot create a file when that file already exists." Based on my understanding, it may return "The handle is invalid." in turn by the component calling it.   Zhao Ji Ma Sincerely, Microsoft Online Community Support “Please remember to click “Mark as Answer” on the post that helps you, and to click “Unmark as Answer” if a marked post does not actually answer your question.

  Re: Error message : Unsupported REQUEST_METHOD Reply Contact Thanks for your answer. I have installed the "IIS 6.0 Management Compatibility", it works on Vista when enable ssl using my program. However, I follow the same steps on Longhorn Beta 3, but it doesn't work. Then I follow the article http://www.iis.net/articles/view.aspx/IIS7/Managing-IIS7/Configuring-Security/Using-SSL/How-to-Setup-SSL-on-IIS7 to enable ssl. The result is fine on Vista, but still bad on Longhorn Beta 3. Is it possible that IIS on Longhorn has some problems?   Thanks.

  Re: Error message : Unsupported REQUEST_METHOD Reply Contact kstyler, thanks for the reply. And Anil, thanks for the help. I realize that I made a silly mistake, I was actually testing on Vista not Windows Server 2008 beta3.
