Running ASP and ASP.NET

All,

I have a large asp application running on window 2003. I would like to add
functionality to the site using asp.net. Is that possible? if so, how would
I configure the site or IIS to run both.

I'm very new to asp.net and any help would be appreciated.

First off, they won't be able to share state (unless you have money).

That said, what I do... for all pages that aren't directly related to
the flow of the application, I use ASP.NET. On e-commerce websites,
anything related to the shopping cart flow and all that stays ASP,
while anything related to contact pages, help pages, and special order
processing is done in ASP.NET.

Furthermore, I will NOT do ASP programming anymore. If someone wants
something done and the ASP dude isn't available I'll do whatever I need
to do in C# and then expose it as COM/COM+/WCF so ASP can see it.

You just have to install .NET on the web server and you're set. If
that doesn't work, run the below command:

C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727>aspnet_regiis.exe -i

Hello Jamal,

As some other guys have provided many info about ASP/ASP.NET app
configuration, here are some additional add-on resource from msdn/technet
about ASP.NET application configuration in IIS:

#ASP.NET and IIS Configuration
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms178477.aspx

#Overview of ASP.NET Configuration (IIS 6.0)
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/WindowsServer2003/Library/IIS/a

For classic ASP, in IIS6, it is disabled by default, you can manually
enable it in the "Web Service Extensions".

Also, the following website is a very good place for starting ASP.NET
programming, the latest version is 2.0 which is much enhanced from 1.x:

#Learn ASP.NET

Enjoy them and always welcome here when you have any ASP.NET questions ;-)
