I have a website developed in ASP and MS access.

I have migrated to the Plesk 8.1.1 Linux sever. Guess what ... no MSAccess support.

Does anyone have a no cost/low cost solution to allow me to run on this Linux server?

Or what is the process to convert to mysql. Presently it uses a DSN. Of course I would prefer not to have to recode the entire site.

I know there are 3rd party softwares like chilisoft (depreciated) but that doesnt sound like a viable solution any longer?

Any ideas appreciated!

MS Access "IS" Supported on linux, it sounds as if your problem is a combination of using ASP and DSN.

Change to a DSNless connection and it "may" work if you installed Apache ASP.

The other option is to move to PHP.

but even with Apache ASP you cant just take MS ASP and stick it there and expect it to work right?
