IIS 8

[t1701]

I'm configuring IIS 8 for Cognos 10 and have a question.
I read some documents on IBM's support site that say cgi-bin should be set up as a virtual directory. I've read other documents that say cgi-bin should be set up as an application.
Which should it be?

I generally set up ibmcognos as an application and cgi-bin as a virtual directory.

MF.

It should not matter if you only have one Cognos instance.
If you have more than one instances in the same server, application pool needs to be defined for additional instances.
