In this article, we will discuss the process of installing an ASP website on a web hosting space. We will cover the necessary steps and preparations to successfully set up your ASP website.
Before you start installing your ASP website, there are some preparations you need to make. Here is a checklist of tasks you need to complete:
To get started, you need to choose and purchase a domain name that suits your website. Additionally, select a hosting provider that meets your requirements.
Contact your developer or supplier to obtain the necessary ASP files that will be used to run your ASP application on the website.
Once you have the ASP files, you can proceed with uploading them to your hosting space. Follow these steps:
Select an FTP client such as FileZilla or Cyberduck.
Use the FTP address, username, and password provided by your hosting provider to connect to your hosting space.
Locate your ASP files on your computer and upload them to the appropriate location in your hosting space.
If your ASP website requires a database, you need to configure it. Follow these steps:
Create a new database in the management panel provided by your hosting provider.
Make sure to note down the database name, username, and password as you will need this information to set up your ASP files.
Locate a file named conn.asp
in your ASP files and edit it to include the details of your database.
Save your changes and close the file.
Once you have completed all the setup, it's essential to test your website to ensure everything is running smoothly:
Enter your website's URL in your browser.
Verify if your website loads correctly and all the functionalities are working as expected.
If your website fails to load properly, you can view the page's source code to identify any error messages. Fix the issues with your ASP files or database settings accordingly.
