RedHat ASP Support, RedHat ASP, Chilisoft ASP
Microsoft ASP pages are supported on our Linux Servers through a
product Active Server Pages
from Sun Microsystems. We
are currently running version 4.0.2. It
is installed on all web servers (including secure servers) and there are no additional charges for nominal
use. This page will provide you valuable links for support.
-
Sun
Microsystems - This is the company which supports the product and we have it licensed
for use on our servers. It is NOT shareware or in the public domain. Go
to their support page for complete documentation, including some public
support forums where you can post questions.
-
Your Own
Samples - From your sites control
panel we have an ASP wizard that will install some simple examples
in your HTML area. This includes a working example of using ODBC to
connect to our MySQL database.
We do have direct support from Sun. If you are experiencing a real
problem with the product send us detailed information on how to reproduce the
problem and we will try to get an answer. If you find a valuable ASP resource
you would like to share with others, please let us know and we will add a link
and information to this page. Some debug notes appear below:
MapPath |
dir =
Server.MapPath("/asp/dbaseconnect.inc"). Make sure you
remember that the beginning / in this path refers to the top level of your
website's document root. So, in the code above, this would be
looking for a file name dbaseconnect.inc in a directory named asp off your
home directory. When using ASP on the secure server, The
document root is the /pub/secure directory. So to refer to a file in
your secure area, you would have to make sure to include your subscriber
name in the path to the file.
ie - dir = Server.MapPath("/playland/asp/dbaseconnect.inc").

MS Access/
dBase5 |
There currently is no
direct support for using MS Access files with Chilisoft ASP, however Chilisoft ASP does support dBase5 files. With dBase5, each table is
represented by a separate file. Depending on the complexity of your MS
Access file, this may provide an option for your. See
our dBase5 example. For more complex database
applications, we would recommend using MySQL. |
CDONTS |
If you want to send a message including
HTML, you need to set the objects "BodyFormat" property to
zero. There is a property called "MailFormat", but
it is not supported. |
