Converting Existing Classic ASP Pages
Mar 24, 2011
I am trying to convert existing classic ASP webpages to ASP.NET. I dont have a lot of knowledge in the area. This is what i currently have. I use a Microsoft Access to pass data to tables in a Oracle Database. I then have .asp pages that pull data from the oracle tables. I just recently installed Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate and i want to start converting my .asp pages to .aspx. I have never used Visual Studio before so I am stuck at the beginning of this process. Do i start by creating a new ASP.NET Web application? I know there are things i need to add to the Webconfig file too but i dont know exactly what.

some automated tools to help in migrating classic ASP to ASP.NET I tried to install "ASP to ASP.NET 1.x Migration Assistant" from the link below but it encountered a problem during installation. Has anyone used it? Any other better tools? I know everything cannot be automated but I would imagine there are some tools out there. [URL]

We have a site and a logged in section of the site that all was written in classic asp. We are starting to convert the site pages to asp.net 3.5. We are starting with the easiest pages (text mainly) first then we will rewrite the web application part of the site.
My question is - Is it possible to run the new asp.net 3.5 pages with classic asp pages? Or will we need to rewrite everything before deploying?

I am making MSSQL stored procedure CLR calls from ASP pages. When an exception occurs, it is logged and then rethrown. In this scenario I need to be able to handle the exception (if possible) in the ASP page. Note that I cannot move away from classic ASP in this instance; I am stuck within a legacy system for this project. let me know if you know of a way to handle the exceptions in classic ASP.

I have a website that's in Classic ASP on a hosted server. I'd like to be able to create some "virtual" pages so I can specify google-friendly URLs that translate to ASPs [URL] this_is_the_help_page instead of [URL]admin/helpsubsystem/help.aspx?current_user etc As the server also supports ASP.NET - could I use an HTTP Handler to intercept these calls and do any necessary translations?

We have recently migrated one of our legacy websites (classic ASP) to ASP.Net 4.0. I have already created a RegisterRoutes() in Global.asax (as per [URL]). I am concerned about SEO rankings and link breakages with external sites linking to old site.
Ideally, I will like to: Load all the routes from an XML file within RegisterRoutes() --> As there are 100's of pages with no naming convention followed. We have already created mappings within an excel spread sheet which can easily be exported to XML.Action Permanent redirects from within RegisterRoutes() --> to avoid having landing page(s) performing Redirects like Response.RedirectPermanent() and Response.RedirectToRoutePermanent. Has anyone run into a similar situation? Is there a better way of handling this situation?

Is it possible to use VS 2008 Pro to edit classic ASP pages/projects? If so, what needs to be done? Is it advisable to use VS 2005 Pro instead?

I have developed a asp.net website.Now what i want is that it should be multilingual.I don't want a page to be multilingual.I want the whole website to be multilinual.I used the Culture settings as
System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("zh-HK"); System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("zh-HK");
This is the setting i used for the culture but my website didn;t got converted.I searched a lot on google but not able to find any solution.Also the resource files process a bit too hard Please let me know how i can achieve this.Using some free third party tool or some jquery or some javascript code or some asp.net implementations which i can complete quickly.

I'm working on a website with legacy Classic ASP pages (being converted to ASP.NET on an as needed basis) and new ASP.NET pages. Use of IIS 7 Integrated Pipeline has been very helpful with our configuration. For example, we were able to get forms authentication working auto-magically with the classic ASP pages simply by configuring the appropriate sections of the web.config file (i.e. no changes were required to the Classic ASP pages, for more info see this).
A colleague of mine believes that custom error pages, as specified in the web.config <customErrors> section, should also be auto-magically applied to the classic ASP pages, but for our website it only works for the ASP.NET pages. Nor have I been able to find any information describing the capability of applying custom error pages to Classic ASP with the IIS 7 integrated pipeline. Is it possible to apply custom error pages to Classic ASP pages per a web.config for an website running under IIS7 with integrated pipeline? If so, how?

We run a PHP-website through IIS v6.0 (windows server 2003). The site was configured by an ex-collegue. Now I have to add a couple of existing
ASP-pages to the site. I have tried this, but it won't work. When calling an ASP page in Internet Explorer, we get the following message : "The page cannot be found". However, if I rename the asp-pages to php, it does work fine, but this is not the way I want it to work (I like to keep the asp pages, to be sure they work well). Can one configure IIS so ASP pages can run aside our existing PHP-pages ?

I have a main master page, say MasterPageMain, and a couple of folders with couple of pages in each folder which act as a child page to that master page - MasterPageMain.
Now, I have about 10 pages in one of the folder which follows a certain pattern and they could really use a nested pages since any change on some parts needs me to change all the pages which is a pain really.
I already added a Nested master page, say NestedMasterPage - which is a child of MasterPageMain
I tried to change one of the page's <%@ Page directive to NestedMasterPage, immediately, there were a lot of errors. plus I dint know where the NestedMasterPage's children content would go.
What do I need to know in order to do this succesfully?
ps: I dint do this initially because I only had 2 pages, and I dint need this at that time, as the project grew, now i see that I should have changed it much earlier..

I'm using the following for generating a Word document from a webpage: [URL] I'm using this to generate and print reports. The report sections all need to start on a new page, and the pages of each section need to be numbered: section 1 page 1, section 1 page 2, etc. The content is dynamic, so I can't just print the report, see where the pages fall and hardcode the headings in. Is there any way to calculate or determine when a new page is started?

c#/vb webapp. I'm working on a very old app with a ton of pages. I want to add a function to every page's PreRender. If this application was designed properly from the start, it would use a MasterPage, or would at least inherit all pages from a BasePage other than System.Web.UI.Page.The goal is that every aspx page's PreRender should trigger a call to FooFunction(). I'd like to have this done all in one page, to avoid opening every single .aspx file and changing it's inheritence / pasting FooFunction() / some other time waster.Is there a way to do this in .net? Can you point me in the direction of any design/discussion articles?

I have a client that currently has a comprehensive php website (with a huge amount of functionality built in).
We have been requested to link into our c#/SQL server application and pull information from the SQL database and display this on the existing website.
I would like to do this as aspx pages. However, I do not want to re-create the complete existing website. I would like to add the aspx functionality onto the current website.

I am new to ASP.Net. I am working on an ASP application in which I need to use an existing C# class (.cs) to get a return and pass to my ASP code. I know it may be impossible to call C# class directly from classic ASP.

Just two many pages to re-write. A Microsoft consultant informed us it would cost about $750,000 to rewrite all of our pages. The school district's budget is only $67,500 so this is out of the question. Therefore I am going to have to stick to asp Classic.

I am asking my self many times before start writing a new app or data access library , should I use LINQ to SQL or classic ADO.net , I have used both and the development time I spend on building an app with LINQ to SQL is like the 1/3 compared to ADO.net.
The only think I like using LINQ to SQL is that I don't have to design the domain objects LINQ does that for me and saves me from spend my time on boring things :P But is LINQ to SQL suitable for large scale projects, is there an overhead that we can avoid when using ADO.net ?

I currently work for a company that uses a combination of ASP.NET Webforms and legacy ASP pages for web development. This works fairly well for their current projects but I would like to convince / suggest to them to switch over to ASP.NET MVC since most of their codebase consists of wiring form elements to stored procedure parameters. Just using an ORM is also a possibility but I think it would be a good idea to use this opportunity to switch to an MVC framework.
However, I'm not sure how easy it will be to deploy an ASP.NET MVC app along side ASP.NET and Classic ASP code while the codebase is updated. First, I would like to ask if this is even possible. I've seen threads about running ASP.NET with Classic ASP and ASP.NET MVC with Webforms but not all three in the same application. They currently have Webforms and Classic ASP working together so the pitfalls associated with that are already solved.

I've tried to do my homework on this...
I'm migrating a site from classic asp to asp.net 4.0
Before I rework all the code, I wanted to get clarification that the way i think my database code should be updated is fairly correct. (I'm using SQLClient objects)
First, when old code would use forward only recordsets or access single record/value, I'm fairly sure i'd use SqlCommand and SqlDataReader. That is pretty straightforward.
Now, when my old code navigates a recordset (movePrevious, find, etc.)... I believe the way to go is with SqlDataAdapter and DataTable to retrieve the data and DataView to filter/find/navigate the data.
I'n looking to do a quick migration... i don't want to get too bogged down in the new entity framework... so - just trying to stick with similar objects/logic.
I know this is one of those questions that doesn't really have a right/wrong answer... and I think that is part of my problem in finding an answer - there are so many.

We are in design phase of a project whose goal is replatforming an ASP classic application to ASP.Net 4.0. The system needs to be entirely web based. There are several new requirements for the new system that make this a challenging project:
The system needs to be database independent. It must, at version 1.0, support MS SQL Server, Oracle, MySQL, Postgres and DB2. The system must be able to allow easy reporting from the database by third party reporting packages. The system must allow an administrative end user to create their own tables in the database through the web based interface. The system must allow an administrative end user to design/configure a user interface (web based) where they can select tables and fields in the system (either our system's core tables or their own custom tables created in #3) The system must allow an administrative end user to create and maintain relationships between these custom created tables, and also between these tables and our system's core tables. The system must allow an administrative end user to create business rules that will enforce validation, show/hide UI elements, block certain actions based on the identity of specific users, specific user groups or privileges.
Essentially it's a system that has some core ticket tracking functionality, but allows the end user to extend the interface, business rules and the database. Is this possible to build in a .Net, Web based environment? If so, what do you think the level of effort would be to get this done? We are currently a 6 person shop, with 2.5 full time developers.

I am new to ASP and ASP.net.I have just started working on a legacy ASP classic project and been given a sample that makes a remote call in ASP.net.Is it possible to call the ASP.net page from ASP?Are you they compatible.My impression so far is that they aren't compatible, but perhaps. I'm wrong.I mean the .net project could be called with parameters and kept seperate I guess?Does anyone have any experience with similar problems or have any tips they can share?

We have a big classic ASP website, and we want to start writing new code in .net, (the website is way to big to rewrite 100% at this stage).
The old website uses session variables, will these still be accessible in the .net pages, and if not (which I suspect) is there anything we can do to make them accessible?
The new section is detachable, that is it is pretty much independent from the rest of the site so should be fine to write in .NET, it's just sessions which are important to us. Do we need another login page?
How bad practise would it be to ajax a local .net page which sets session info when they login to the old site? Can we copy session data this way?
