    <p>I am having an infuriating experience with IIS7, Python 2.6, Mercurial 1.7.2, and hgweb.cgi.</p> <p>After battling for an afternoon getting hgweb.cgi to work, I finally got it to render in the browser using hgweb.cgi and IIS7. I can now see a blank rendering of the web server, that is, a header with no repositories listed. </p> <p>Now, according to the multipe sites I've read after scouring through Google results, I know that I have to update my hgweb.config file to point to some repositories.</p> <p>However, for the life of me, I can't get it to list my repository using either the [paths] or [collections] entries.</p> <p>I have the following directory structure, (simplified but illustrative...):</p> <p>c:\code c:\code\htmlwriter c:\code\CommandLineProjects\Clean</p> <p>The latter two directories have mercurial repositories in them.</p> <p>I am trying to publish the repository in c:\code\htmlwriter</p> <p>Now, if I make this entry in hgweb.config</p> <pre><code>[paths] htmlwriter = c:\code\htmlwriter </code></pre> <p>I get nothing listed in my output.</p> <p>If I put</p> <pre><code>[paths] htmlwriter = c:\code\* </code></pre> <p>I get something, but not what I want, i.e. this:</p> <p>htmlwriter/CommandLineProjects/Clean</p> <p>(Note that the about drills down one directory level farther than I want it to).</p> <p>I can't seem to find any combination of paths, asterisks, or anything else that will serve up the repository in c:\code\htmlwriter. It appears to always want to go one level deeper than I want it to, or to show nothing. </p> <p>I know that my hgweb.config file is being read because I can change the style tag in it and it changes what is rendered.</p> <p>I have read and re-read multiple time a number of resources on the web, but they all say what I'm trying should be working. For instance, I followed this instructions to the letter with no good results:</p> <p><a href="http://www.jeremyskinner.co.uk/mercurial-on-iis7/" rel="nofollow">http://www.jeremyskinner.co.uk/mercurial-on-iis7/</a></p> <p>Anyone have any suggestions?</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
