Web Hosting Talk : Web Hosting Main Forums : Hosting Security and Technology : ASP on Apache server?

[certify]

Are there any tools that enable ASP to run on Apache that is FREE besides ChilliASP?

[akashik]

Well there's ApacheASP. I took a bit of a look at it and checked out some forums. The more I read the less the idea seemed like a good one. It's also a bit of a hig from what I hear. So in short, no I don't think there's a 'feasible' free ASP setup for Apache as yet.

You can use ApacheASP as said above, but there's also Chili!Soft ASP (http://www.chilisoft.com/downloads/), and OpenASP (http://www.activescripting.org/) - but that's pretty much it.

Does anyone have any feedback on OpenASP? The site seems down at the moment..

**edit: from what I can see from some searching, this one hasn't been worked on in close to two years!

Ahh no free ones... I was hoping to install one a free one and test it.

We was thinking of purchasing CHillisoft ASP

but what is the difference between

ChillisoftASP (www.chillisoft.com)
ApachAsp (www.apachasp.com)
OpenAsp

are they all the same as in the requirements to run ASP pages?

I got chillisoft working on my server

Hey Node,

so whats the difference?

[node9]

well i didnt go installing all 3
cant get to openasp page
apacheasp i tried, it wouldnt work right...

Maybe i typed something wrong, but the asp files woulnt load right..

Chilliasp seems the best so far, easier... I ended up setting up a seperate webserver though

See, i currently run apache 1.3.20 with the works... mod perl, mod php, etc.... chilliasp asked me where my httpd.conf was i directed it to the right place, it told me that apache 1.3.20 wasnt supported, lol...

So i had to purposely install apache 1.3.12, so i ran it as a seperate server... binded it on another IP....
I planon running only one site with asp anyway
so im running it on a whole diff dir. Anything else i can run on the other webserver

i tried using chilliasp
