[Moin-user] Moin editing Error on IIS/WinXP-Pro

[gritter at verizon.net]

Attempting to install and run Moin 1.0 locally on a Windows XP Pro workstation with Python 2.1.2 under IIS 5.1. 

Installation goes smoothly. When I go to localhost/mywiki, I see and can navigate around the seed front page, set user preferences, etc., no problem. 

However attempting to Edit a page results in a error. The complete error message is below. I'm not a developer, so this is all foreign to me. 

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have enjoyed Moin as a personal organization & project tracking tool on another machine (WinXP Home + Apache), and would like to use it on this WinXP Pro box as well. 

Thanks! Error message follows . . .
