I have this test python file

import os  print 'Content-type: text/html'  print   print '<HTML><HEAD><TITLE>Python Sample CGI</TITLE></HEAD>' print '<BODY>' print '<H1>This is A Sample Python CGI Script</H1>' print '<br>' if os.environ.has_key('REMOTE_HOST'):    print '<p>You have accessed this site from IP: '+os.environ['REMOTE_HOST']+'</p>' else:    print os.environ['COMPUTERNAME']  print '</BODY></html>' 

I created an application on IIS 5.1 with permission to execute scripts and created a mapping to .py like this:

C:\Python30\python.exe -u '%' '%' 

But when I try to execute the script I got the following error:

CGI Error The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of HTTP headers. The headers it did return are:  C:\Python30\python.exe: can't find '__main__.py' in '' 

Any idea?

    C:\Python30\python.exe -u '%' '%' 

    Close, but it should be ‘%s’. I use:

    'C:\Python30\python.exe' -u '%s'  

    (The second %s is for command-line <isindex> queries, which will never happen in this century.)
