i have got someone who is interested in moving a ASP site to my hosting setup but my host is a UNIX platform. Actually i can see no reason for his site to be ASP cause it looks like a flat html site with .asp encoded pages.I just wondered what the experts think of running ASP on UNIX.
View RepliesI need to do is display results of a command I run in UNIX, for example:
In the ASP page I'd have a textbox in which the user would type an UNIX command like "cat unixFile", after the user hits the "Execute Button" the results would be displayed in another textbox.
Basically my question is, how can I login to an UNIX server from ASP, send UNIX commands and capture the result?
Is there a way to create directories using vb or jscript in IIS to a unix machine? I want to have the aility to upload files through my Win2k Web Server, and have those files stored on my Mac OS X Server under new directories based on date and Upload ID's from the Db.
View Replies View RelatedSimple quesion: Can you run ASP pages on a Unix server?
I am trying to learn "include files" and before I go any further I need to know if it can be used on a Unix server. IF NOT, what would be my options?
I'm working on a proof of concept for ASP. I've already done it using Windows 2k server, IIS, using open source [no initial cost involved]. I'm looking to doing the same using a linux box. Does anyone know if this can be done without buying any additional tools?
View Replies View RelatedIn my pages i have to read a text file which is created in Unix format through my asp code. The problem is that the readline command reads the whole file and not line by line as the file is in Unix format. Is there a way to convert it using asp code and then read it or any other solution to this problem?
As the file is created by an application not controlled by myself it is impossible to force the application developer to do this job so i have to do it during runtime. So what are your suggestions?
I am trying to replicate the Unix Timestamp,specifically the function
mktime() in Vbscript, ASP. I have the following so far:
ThisTime = DateSerial(2004, 9, 27) + TimeSerial(0, 0, 0)
response.write DateDiff("s", "12/31/1969 00:00:00", ThisTime)
This returns the timestamp: 1096329600, and when you decode that it comes
to: 27 Sep 2004 20:00. I want to set the time too, ie. show for example: 27
Sep 2004 16:15
Please tell me how to execute a unix shell script from ASP?
Is it possible to pass the user id and password for the unix server as call parameters?
Will ASP run on Unix/Linux software like Apache or Red Hat? If so what needs to be done to do this?
View Replies View RelatedI need to access a database on a MS SQL Sever from my unix apache web server.I would preferably want to continue to use ASP rather than go to PHP or Perl - I know that I need to build unixODBC on the web box, but do I need to do anything else other than reference the SQL server in unixODBC?
Has anyone used unixODBC? The console & CLI seem fairly self-explanatory... Do you need extra drivers to connect to a MS SQL box? Can I still use the same server.createobject & ADODB statements in my ASP code? Or do they need to change? Syntax etc?
I'm new to ASP so please forgive my ignorance. Our IT department says that there is no way that what I suggest can be done. I disagree because it should be possible (if not there is a massive hole in the market), but don't have the technical knowledge to back myself.
We have an Windows/IIS web server for our public website. Internally for our intranet we have a Unix box with and Oracle database. What I want to know is: Is it possible to query that database from the windows server using ASP? Are there any clients/COM/APIs etc that this would require? Can anyone direct me to a webpage that has more info?
I currently use ADO (adoConn.Provider = "ADSDSOObject") to access user information in the domain Active Directory. I want to expand my application to be able to access user information in other LDAP compatable user lists (LINUX or UNIX for example). I did some

i'm trying to use an odbc driver to connect from an asp page to a data source (dbase) on unix sunsolaris. is this poss?
the driver is installed though i cant seem to do it through dreamweaver ultradev - can i do it through the ftp connection?
what would i input as the source on the following to initiate the connection in the asp page?
"Provider= "MSDASQL"; Data Source= server name ?
"Database=test;User ID=sa;Password=blabla"
or how would i do it using the followign as an include file ? Code:

I'm cobbling together an e-commerce site with thousands of items (spares, accessories etc) and want to distribute it as a catalog on CD. I don't fancy rewriting it to HTML.

I am very new to asp programing, so this may seem a silly question but here goes.
I am creating a page that will generate random lotter numbers. I have created the actual code to generate the numbers and have added the code to the top of the page. the problem is the code runs when the page loads and I want it to run only on the click of a button.
I read various starter tutorials and none seem to mention how to asign code to the click of a button.
I know there have been posts about this issue before, but I can't seem to find what I'm looking for. I'm not well versed in ASP, but in PHP there is a function called exec. This launches a process. I can call a PHP script from the command line and have it run in the background i.e.
<?php
exec(php myscript.php &);
?>
is there a way to do the same thing with ASP? I want to run an ASP script in the background
I am trying to run an ASP page in IIS 6.0 and I keep getting one of
two errors:
-2147467259 (0x80004005)
The remote procedure call failed and did not execute.
I have Win XP. It's been running fine for a long time and then
yesterday, for no apparent reason, I get this. I've tried the links
to asp.faq that I've seen others post and nothing works.
As a test, I created a simple ASP page with just '<%
Response.Write("Hello") %>' in it and still the error occurs so it's
not a scripting or database problem. DotNet seems to run fine and I
can run HTML pages, I also have Apache and can run PHP scripts with no
problem ... everything except classic ASP.
Any ideas? This is driving me crazy and I need IIS running because I
am falling behind in my work. As I mentioned, I've been running ASP
scripts on this machine for years and have never seen this problem.
I have Xp prof, IIs 5.1, .NET2003 on my machine.
I had the error "Visual studio.net has detected that the
specified web server is not runnning ASP.Net version 1.1.
Yow will be unable to run ASP.Net web applications or
services." in .NET 2003.
I fixed it by running the IIS mappings for ASP.NET,
aspnet_regiis -r. But I figured that my IIS had some issue
and I had to register the dll for IIS.
After doing that my .net is throwing the same
error, "Visual studio.net has detected that the specified
web server is not runnning ASP.Net version 1.1. Yow will
be unable to run ASP.Net web applications or services."
I ran the aspnet_regiis -r again it is overwriting the
1.1 .net framework scripts but the error in .Net is not
fixed.
I know my webserver is running Ok because I can develop
ASP pages using Visual Interdev and my default website is
running fine.
Recently, I made a few ASP files connecting to MS Access file with security, I used IIS to test ASP files.

Do I need to create a partition for network drive to run the ASP file/a server for running it?

View Replies View RelatedI am setting up a new server for an already running website. The problem is the person before me ran ASP scripts on .html extension pages (The old machine is a windows 2000 server with IIS 5.0). Now when I transfer all the pages on to the new machine I am having trouble running the ASP scripts on the .html pages.
The pages work fine when I rename them to .asp. But with the ..html extension I cannot run the scripts. I am thinking that I am missing some settings or some dlls which take care of running the ASP scripts on the ..html page. But I do not know what I am missing. Please post if you know
anything about this.
if there are any disadvantages for running my whole site on SSL server (i.e All pages would run on SSL after the user logs in to their account).PS: The service I provide on my site doesn't require users to login everyday to their account. So I don't expect that heavy load.
