We have such a system as you describe that runs on Windows/Apache as well as Unix variants. We have never tried IIS. We use CGI scripts to control the services. ( Win32::Service and Win32::Daemon are involved in these.) The queue-checking and job-implementing code runs as a service. We provide a page that allows you to follow what this service has been up to. We support regularly scheduled as well as one-time jobs in the queue. I can't promise you that it will be easy to build, unless you take most of it from a libre project. For us, it was a relatively small part of a big multi-year development effort. I remember that we have had some problems with Win32::Daemon, but the whole thing is working pretty well now, in production for a year or so. Cheers.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
