Running under IIS

[Rasmus Halland <ha...@gmail.com>]

Hi

I'm thinking that would be nice to be able to easily run CouchDB under IIS
as an ISAPI module. So my question is, how tightly is couchdb coupled with
its web server? And do you think it would be feasible to write such an ISAPI
module?

I don't think there are any ISAPIs for Erlang applications.

CouchDB does not allow you to swap out the web server. If your were to
do it, you'd need to write a) a web server abstraction (ESAPI if you  
will :)
in Erlang and then bridge that to the ISAPI C-API. I don't see how  
this is
any good :)

Cheers

The Best way to do this is via http. Set up your web front end to  
proxy all requests for a certain hostname to CouchDB's port.
