Using Ultra Dev with MySQL on ISP w/asp

Hello. This might be a lengthy discussion;-)

ASP with MySQL is no problem at all. The connection string looks something like this (all on one line):

"driver={MYSQL};SERVER=www.yourname.com;DATABASE=databasename;UID=userid;PASSWORD=password"Ultradev really just takes care of a lot of the housekeeping as far as database connections are concerned and frees you up to worry about the functionality.

The tough part is getting an ASP interpreter for the Linux box. There are a few choices including ChiliASP:
http://www.chilisoft.com/chiliasp/linux.asp

ASP_LINUX
http://www.asp-linux.com/

and you may be able to find some open source stuff at
http://rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/

and another but it only supports PERL at the moment:
http://www.apache-asp.org/index.html

Chilisoft has a pretty good reputation for its interpreter and I think that they have been around the longest as well.

I presume you are running UltraDev on a Windows box? What version? It is pretty stable but likes lots of RAM.

I would be remiss if I did not point out that the macromedia forums are some of the best reaources I've come across - for any software package.

I'd be happy to help if you have any more specific questions.
