Apache::ASP

Apache::ASP provides an Active Server Pages port to the Apache Web Server and enables developing of dynamic web applications with session management and embedded Perl code.

Installation

Connect to your Virtual Server via Telnet or SSH and simply follow these easy steps to install Apache::ASP:

Install the mod_perl Dynamic Module.
Install the Perl LWP library:
% vinstall perl-lwp
Use vcpan to install the Apache::ASP dynamic module:
% vcpan Bundle::Apache::ASP

Modify your web server configuration file (~/www/conf/httpd.conf) to make a place for Apache::ASP to reside:

<Files ~ "\.asp$">
 ## tell Apache to give .asp files to mod_perl
 SetHandler perl-script

 ## tell mod_perl to give .asp files to Apache::ASP handler
 PerlHandler Apache::ASP

 ## set global home
 PerlSetVar Global /tmp

 ## set state home (each ASP application has its own
 ## unique state directory)
 PerlSetVar StateDir /tmp/test_app

 ## use strict
 PerlSetVar UseStrict 1

 ## debug information
 PerlSetVar Debug 1
</Files>

Restart Your Web Server

Make a simple Apache::ASP page and place it in your ~/www/htdocs directory:

<html>
<head>
<title>Apache::ASP Test</title>
</head>
    
<body>
For loop incrementing font size: <p>
<% for(1..5) { %>
     <!-- iterated html text -->
     <font size="<%=$_%>" > Size = <%=$_%> </font> <br>
	 
<% } %>
</body>
</html>

Fetch the page with a web browser and watch it work!
