Web Server to support asp pages?

sikandar · 10-23-2003, 11:00 AM

I have configured the Apache server shipped with RH9 soft but when I am trying to open asp pages seems it is not supporting. Please let me know which web server I should use to get support of asp.

On a linux machine? I havent heard of any, but Im not an expert myself. What I do know, is that asp is microsoft technology, so you might have to use IIS for that

Apache doesn't come with PHP support out of the box either - you got to work a little for it.

I am no big fan of ASP, and I would not even consider using ASP on Linux (PHP is as effiecient, if not better) but if you really want to try it, Apache::ASP would be the first thing to try. Your mileage may vary.

There is also a neat app called asp2php. I don't believe it will pull off converting an advanced ASP script to PHP directly but it could be worth a try.

I got info that there is a web server Chili Soft by Sun which can handle all this........It is available on Sun.com but as its size is 73MB so will try to download in some spare time due to slow conn.

Do not listen to these PHP snobs. Check this instead: http://www.go-mono.com

Thanks for this nice link, please let me know for my RH9 which rpm I should download. Currently I am try for
mono-0.28-1.src.rpm (RH9)

Well, Sir, I have no clue which RPM you need. I always use the tarball to install the things for two reasons:
1) RPM are more supported under Mandrake and RedHat
2) I am using SuSE
3) Tarball will ALWAYS install dunno why

Of course I have a challange time to time to have those tarballs installed but normally I figure them out.

BR,
Teddy
