Does anyone know if you can use ASP pages on Apache...like you would with IIS. I am using IIS right now, but it sucks with the speed and the number of connections. I was considering using Apache, being that some of the site is using Java, but my concern is that ASP pages in my site won't function.

Any thoughts would help.


Thanks in advance.

...of course with only perl scripting instead of vbscript and jscript it will run exactly 0% of the existing ASP apps.

I think Sun now owns ChilisoftASP, which will do what you want. But it's commercial and not cheap.

Since ASP is now deprecated, I'd simply consider replacing it in the next version of the code (assuming active development).

Thanks folks. See, the reason I was asking is that I am trying to set up my website, but my ISP does not run Java or ASP. I was going to the site in ASP, but IIS is not the best, so I think I will scrap that idea and run Apache-Tomcat and do the site in JAVA/JSP since I know it far better than ASP.

Thanks for the help folks.
