Window Web Server IIS v6 forWine

Post by kflee2000 »

I use Wine 1.6 under Linuxmint 13 environment. I am conisdering to move a win server 2003 to a Linux server and the sticking point is the support of IIS v6. These web programs were wriiten in ASP and using Access database. My queestions:

1) Can Wine support IIS v6 web server?

2) If the asp is converted to asp.net, will this work under Wine web server?

Any suggestion appreciated.

kflee2000 wine is totally not suitable to be used this way in its current state. Wine does not have individual users internally. Wine reports to every program that is administrator.

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11112
Basically its this bug. That the wine project has not has the resources to fix. IISv6 server on wine is not an option while this bug exists at min.

http://www.mono-project.com/ASP.NET#ASP ... ith_Apache is something you need to look at. Also migrating database to postgresql or mysql backends. These are the tested solution options.

At least you are here 12 months before end of life of 2003 you don't have to be in insane rush.
