Hi guys, I need to add an ASP site on a web server running Apache2 (SuSE 9.1 iirc). This server already has a large number of sites on, so I don't want to put something on it that will cause trouble. Of the APS implementations for Apache2, http://www.apache-asp.org/install.html appears to be the most popular. What are your experiences/recommendations? Thanks Hans

Though I'm surprised to see anyone supporting ASP, I'd say give it a go. Should be interesting at the very least. I know I had tried Chili!Soft under Red Hat and Manrake, and was fairly pleasantly surprised at the results. My only issue was with the fact that I was using SQL Server 6 and that just doesn't work on a *nix box. :)

Well, install it and give it a go. There are tons of sites with example asp scripts than you can copy and try out. From memory, I'm thinking of asp101.com and codeplanet.com for starters. Google brought back 45,800,000 results for asp samples.
Thanks Hans

Had a similar problem in the past. Apache-asp does only support Perl scripting. If you or your users need to develop some VBScript or JScript, just forget Apache-asp. Chilisoft (Now it is called SunONE Asp) seems to be more useful, but it has very bad performances: it is slow. I don't reccomend it for production servers; it can be useful for testing pourposes... Ah, it is not opensource neither free. Ferdinando PS: I solved my problem installing a Windows 2000 server for my ASP test & development...
