iVistaar

iVistaar

From localhost concept to a useful internal product.

Connect a project folder on your Windows Server. Deploy. Get an organization URL — without Git, without sending code outside your network.

Download v0.6.10

Three steps. Then you’re live.

Built for locked-down Windows shops where Render and public PaaS aren’t an option.

  1. 01

    Install on IIS

    Unzip on the server and run the admin installer. No Git required on the machine.

  2. 02

    Connect a folder

    Point iVistaar at C:\Projects\your-app — or a reachable UNC path.

  3. 03

    Share the URL

    Your team opens an internal site. Redeploy when the code changes — or let auto-deploy watch for you.

Like Render — for your intranet.

One control plane for Flask, Dash, FastAPI, Streamlit, and Gradio apps that usually die on random localhost ports.

Common deploy questions

Real issues from Windows installs — so you spend less time in Event Viewer.

IIS install returns HTTP 500 with empty logs

Use service mode instead: scripts\install-admin-service.cmd -Port 8080. HttpPlatformHandler often fails when Python lives under a user AppData folder.

pip fails on pandas (Meson / vswhere / Visual Studio)

There is no wheel for your Python version, so pip tried to compile from source. Prefer Python 3.11–3.12, or bump pins (e.g. pandas>=2.3.3 on 3.14). You should not need Visual Studio Build Tools.

Dash stuck on “Loading…” / DashRenderer is not defined

Asset URLs must be under /apps/<slug>/. Use entrypoint run:server (or app:server), set server = app.server, redeploy on a current release, then hard-refresh. iVistaar injects the public path prefix for you.

NameError: dash is not defined

You imported from dash import Dash but called dash.Dash(...). Use Dash(...), or add import dash.

Wrong entrypoint for Dash / “cannot import name app”

Dash needs the Flask server object: server = app.server and Connect entrypoint app:server or run:server matching your filename — not app:app unless that attribute is a WSGI app.

WinError 32 on runtime.log during redeploy

The app process still held the log file open. Current releases stop the app task before syncing. Stop iVistaarApp-<slug> and redeploy, or upgrade past 0.6.9.

Installer picks Python 2.7

Python 2.7 is not supported. Install Python 3.10+ and re-run the installer, or pass -PythonPath to install-admin-service.cmd.
