ASP

[wisc]

How can i use ASP files on my new site?

 

Did a search on using asp and enable asp but couldn't find anything.

 

All i could find in the control panel was PHP Perl and other things.

 

do you have windows and linux servers? would i need to go on a windows server? (if so can my site be transfered? "wisc")

 

Thanks

 

Daniel.

# Add new scripting languages on the new server. I'm hoping for Python, Ruby, Ruby on Rails, and JSP on the new server, along with our current PHP, SSI, ASP, ASP.NET, Perl, CGI, and FrontPage extensions.

Uhm, our current server supports ASP. I don't see the purpose of you two linking those topics...

Anyways, you just have to register for an account and create an ASP file in the webroot (public_html or www). Other folders will not work, although you can easily create a wrapper file from the webroot to include them.

I've put a default.asp in my public_html file but it doesn't execute on the server, take a look

works locally on my machine with IIS... what am i missing?

 

actually maybe a better question to ask would be does the server support VB scripts in asp files?

Hey,

Took a look, and turns we don't actually have ASP; we have ASP.NET. ASP is a little outdated; take a look here on how to migrate.

wow, only 299 USD for the standard addition... thats a better idea than paying a host to support asp :S ....however, that was the reason i joined helionet though (not that I'm complaining about a FREE service)

 

better get cracking on updating my code, thanks for the info.

Your file has to be less than 300 lines long though...

ahhh cool thanks, ill trim my code to the essentials and go from there, shame as all the other code is about 500 lines which would have made it easier.

There are some other services out there. I think Microsoft offers a converter... just Google it.

Here is an article from MSDN on Converting ASP to ASP.NET, http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms973813.aspx.

 

You might also want to take a look at the Microsoft Visual Studio Express 2008 Editions, http://www.microsoft.com/express/ In particular Visual Web Devloper, http://www.microsoft.com/express/vwd/. I'm not certain if it has conversion capability for ASP to ASP.NET, but it will get you into the ASP.NET world rather quickly. I've found the help to be much improved compared to other microsoft products.
