 | View Full Version : Asp on linux dlc2000 01-12-2003, 06:37 AM Hi i am getting a Red Hat 7.3 dedicated server, i would buy also a dedicated on Win2k, but i know that i can use asp also on linux, someone can tell me if is a good solution run asp on linux or what problem i will have? thank you anantatman 01-12-2003, 06:46 AM chillisoft is the onlyone that i'd suggest for commercial use, the other option just isn't good enough. dlc2000 01-12-2003, 07:59 AM Do u think that with chillisoft i have a good asp performance? but i can use also Access db? or which db? thank you eddy2099 01-12-2003, 08:21 AM If you want optimum ASP performance, it actually is better if you use a Windows based server.

Neo3Net 01-12-2003, 11:19 PM True, if people are smart enough to be using ASP (or any other scripting language) they are going to know where it fits best. SynHost 01-12-2003, 11:49 PM ASP almost always communicates with a database.. that isn't going to work the Linux side - no Access or anything. matth 01-13-2003, 12:48 AM That is not correct. You can use ASP with mysql/postgresql using chilisoft. It works much better than ASP with Access on a windows server. However I would not recommend asp on linux because with really intensive web apps you certainly notice the difference. We have been running chilisoft asp for over 2 years and IMHO it is not worth the aggrevation. Stick to PHP on linux and ASP on windows. Matt |
