It would be tremendously helpful if you could include details of what's going on.
What you're describing should work but you might need to assign a hostname to the site in Umbraco to be sure that you hit the proper IIS instance.
Alternatively you can set up another IIS site and assign a new hostname to that. That's the way our internal development environments run and it works like a charm.
To do it follow these steps:
1) Open IIS manager, create a new website, and point it to a new physical location like c:\mysites\mysite.dev.
2) In bindings for the new website enter something like "mysite.dev".
3) Open C:\Windows\System32\drivers and add an alias with the following info 127.0.0.1 mysite.dev
4) Install Umbraco and uCommerce in the root of the new site.
I'm sorry to say that we've never conducted any tests with Casini, so I can't say for sure that it'll work at all. I'd recommend going with IIS.
Regarding the new store: We're constrained on developer resources so I can't say for sure when the new store will be ready. We need uCommerce 1.4 out the door first, which I expect will be within the next 3 - 4 weeks.

HI - just trying out Ucommerce so I can demo it to a client, I cannot get it to work on localhost...
