Vb script not running
I have apache tomcat 7.0
linux 6.1 server
I want to deploy a .asp page which contains vb script. The problem is that
vb script is not executing. Even response.write() is not working. Is there
any alternative to run vb script?

Hi.
1) on this list, it is highly-recommended to not "top post"

2) did you even look at the list to which I pointed you in Google ?
Here are 2 more pages which may help you understand the issue better :
http://modvb.sourceforge.net/FAQ.shtml
http://www.mono-project.com/
Please read them before coming back with another question.
Here is some additional, but very summary information :
Tomcat is a Java Servlet Engine (or Container). It can run so-called "dynamic pages",
using a technology known as "JSP" (Java Server Pages). As the name indicates, the code in
those pages is supposed to be Java.
Pages containing vbscript sections are usually part of another technology, known as "ASP",
which is Microsoft-specific. Tomcat will not run that, it doesn't even know what it is.
The links above point to solutions which could allow you to "run" such pages under Apache
httpd (under Linux or Windows), which is another webserver than Tomcat, but which could be
used as a front-end to Tomcat, to run these things.
If your problem is only a few vbscript sections, then you may want to consider rewriting
these parts of the application in Java/JSP. The benefit would be that then, they would
become cross-platform (for Linux and Windows).
If there is a lot of vbscript used in the application, and you do not want to convert it
to Java, then look at the solutions indicated above.

Thank you for your reply,
the vb script is normally running under windows server, i had checked it.
When i deploy it into apache tomacat server and try to access vb script
then it does nothing. Is there any alternative method?

Assuming that this script should normally be running on the server side..
VB (Visual Basic), as far as I know, is propietary technology of Microsoft Corporation.
So without some additional help, it is unlikely to run under anything else than Microsoft
Operating Systems and/or Microsoft webservers.
This search in Google may point to some answers : apache vbscript linux

What is Linux 6.1? My Linux kernels say 2.6.32 or 3.14.42 and I know
I'm not *that* far behind. So, what version number does that actually
refer to?

Is the vb script supposed to run on the server (Tomcat) or the client
(browser)?
If you're expecting this to work on the server, then you may be
confused: Tomcat is a Java application server, and doesn't know a
thing about running VB scripts. If you want the client (browser) to
run the script, then you'd better be running some version of MSIE,
because it's the only browser that supports VB script.
