HOW-TO: ASP DOT NET Module for UniServer Nano 5.6.5

[page2pagepro]

Tested to work with 'hello-world.aspx'.

 

Here are my steps for getting ASP to work with Uniform Server 5.6.5

 

Variables used for this how-to.

• %top% is assumed your path to the root of UniServer Installation
  

1. Temporarily rename %top%\usr\local\apache2\bin\Apache.exe to httpd.exe
   
2. Download mod_aspdotnet-2.2.0.2006-setup-r2.msi
   
3. Install module to %top%\usr\local\apache2 (All this does is install mod_aspdotnet.so to apache2\modules folder and adds manual to apache2\manual, and of course adds registry entries)
   
4. Make a copy of mod_aspdotnet.so to _mod_aspdotnet.so
   
5. Uninstall "mod_aspdotnet for Apache HTTP Server 2.2" - removing 'all' trace from the computer.
   
6. Rename _mod_aspdotnet.so to mod_aspdotnet.so
   
7. Rename httpd.exe back to Apache.exe
   
8. Add following to the BOTTOM of your %top%\usr\local\apache2\conf\httpd.conf
   • #asp.net
     LoadModule aspdotnet_module "modules/mod_aspdotnet.so"
     AddHandler asp.net asax ascx ashx asmx aspx axd config cs csproj licx rem resources resx soap vb vbproj vsdisco webinfo
     <IfModule mod_aspdotnet.cpp>
     # Mount the ASP.NET /asp application
     AspNetMount /asp "%top%/www/asp"
     #/SampleASP is the alias name for asp.net to execute
     #"c:/SampleASP" is the actual execution of files/folders in that location
      
     # Map all requests for /asp to the application files
     Alias /asp "%top%/www/asp"
     #maps /SampleASP request to "c:/SampleASP"
     #now to get to the /SampleASP type http://localhost/SampleASP
     #It'll redirect http://localhost/SampleASP to "c:/SampleASP"
      
     # Allow asp.net scripts to be executed in the /SampleASP example
     <Directory "%top%/www/asp">
     Options FollowSymlinks ExecCGI
     Order allow,deny
     Allow from all
     DirectoryIndex index.htm index.aspx
     #default the index page to .htm and .aspx
     </Directory>
      
     # For all virtual ASP.NET webs, we need the aspnet_client files
     # to serve the client-side helper scripts.
     AliasMatch /aspnet_client/system_web/(\d+)_(\d+)_(\d+)_(\d+)/(.*) "C:/Windows/Microsoft.NET/Framework/v$1.$2.$3/ASP.NETClientFiles/$4"
     <Directory "C:/Windows/Microsoft.NET/Framework/v*/ASP.NETClientFiles">
     Options FollowSymlinks
     Order allow,deny
     Allow from all
     </Directory>
     </IfModule>
     #asp.net
     

[*]Restart Server

[*]Place your hello-world.aspx in folder %top%/www/asp

[*]Please provide feedback if you find a simpler method.

I have not tested beyond *BASIC* functionality of the mod. Please, if you have an involved ASP script, please try it out and share your results.

 

thanx!

%top%/www/asp/Hello-World.aspx

Dim I ' declare our loop index variable
%>

<%
' Start the loop telling it to loop from 1 to 5 incrementing
' I by one (which is the default) on each pass.
'
' ie. this would have done the same thing:
' For I = 1 To 5

For I = 1 To 5 Step 1
' Output our HTML and text using the value of I as
' the FONT TAG's SIZE attribute.
%>
<FONT SIZE="<%= I %>">Hello World</FONT><BR>
<%
Next ' Bounce back to the top of the loop
%>

Sorry all. I had a brain-fart and these steps are incorrect. When installing mod_aspdotnet-2.2.0.2006-setup-r2.msi, several required files are installed in the %windir%. By Uninstalling the mod from add/remove, these files are of course removed and you will receive Apache Error:

 

• RunTime Error!
  
• 
  
• Program: .....Apache.exe
  
• 
  
• This application as requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
  
• Please contact the application's supoprt team for more information.
  

Solution:

1. Assuming %top% is the root of your installation folder containing the Start.exe
   
2. Download and extract mod_asp.zip to %top%\mod_asp
   
3. Run %top%\mod_asp\Install.bat
   
4. %top%\mod_asp\Uninstall.bat will undo the previous leaving no trace on PC.
   

mod_asp.zip
