## Running on IIS
If you have set up a local or remote IIS web site, you may need a `web.config` with:
* A rewrite configuration, for handling clean urls.
* A mime type handler for less files, if using a custom theme.
### Clean URLs
The `web.config` needs an entry for `<rewrite>` under `<system.webServer>`:
```xml
<configuration>
<system.webServer>
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="Main Rule" stopProcessing="true">
<match url=".*" />
<conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAll">
<add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsFile" negate="true" />
<add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsDirectory" negate="true" />
</conditions>
<action type="Rewrite" url="index.php" appendQueryString="false" />
</rule>
</rules>
</rewrite>
</system.webServer>
</configuration>
```
*Note*: To have clean URLs with IIS6, you will need to use a custom URL rewrite module, such as [URL Rewriter](http://urlrewriter.net/).
### Less Mime Type
The `web.config` needs a new `<mimeMap>` entry, under `<staticContent>` in `<system.webServer>`:
```xml
<staticContent>
<mimeMap fileExtension=".less" mimeType="text/css" />
</staticContent>
```
*Note*: Only add the mime map entry if you are using a custom theme and receive 404s for `.less` files.
If you have a global mime map entry for less files set, you will receive an internal server (500) error for having duplicate mime map entries.
