ASP Pages will not run in Linux Server. To run asp in Linux you will need Chilly ASP or other third party solutions. Try to run ASP pages on windows server with IIS installed

Man, the Linux OS runs in Web Server. How does that affects the site?
Moreover he can able to run it with IE. So the problem is not with the Web Server OS.

yes, you need a asp supported server to host .asp files. Buy a windows hosting, and transfer all files and database (if there is any)..... update nameserver address of domain name.

cpanel is not available in windows server. Linux server mostly have PHP support and cpanel. Check that server has ASP support by running the file *02a6ccb.netsolhost.com/ASPServerTest.rar and check the different available objects on the server.

i have some doubt tho i am not an expert. i have hosted my site with windows hosting and i am able to access cpanel. secondly, we do have our internal webpages i.e. infotouch, and all pages in ASP. morever, we can access the pages thru opera and chrome and server is based on linux.

pl check the internal settings.

In linux asp will work but will require third party soultions like chilly ASP, which are costlier and not easier to implement. The best solution is to port ur website to PHP if you can't change the server. In this case you have to redevelop all the pages.

Easier solution is to change the server to windows based and change the settings in the domain control panel.

cpanel may be available in windows but in a different name. Every domain has a control panel if sold individually and cpanel is a form of domain control panel.

What if this involves database support, HTML does not support server-side interaction in the actual. This is good as plain one way information.

I am scare, that will not help you. It depend on type of coding. Just saving as html file will not change asp codes into html codes.

Still for converting all pages to html you will have to download the site using FTP and then install database(SQL, MySQL, Access) and make the connection in the connection file then use Internet Information System(IIS in XP or Vista) to run the asp pages and then save each page as HTML from the browser save as, so that they are saved as HTML pages.
