[OPLINTECH] migrating an asp page

[Karen Perone]

We recently upgraded to a new web server running Win2008R2 and IIS 7.5. 
We had happily been using FrontPage Server Extensions with all the great 
database connectors and file includes.

Unfortunately, FPSE is no longer an option with this newest server 
version and our database search and form pages broke. They used .asp 
pages for entering data and searching.

For example, our database search of a local cemetery - 
http://www.rodmanlibrary.com/rpl/ref/genealogy/stjosephburials.asp

The database connection seems to be gone. IIS 7.5 seems to use ASP.Net 
and not ODBC. I have searched endlessly for a solution in simple English 
that will help me make this work again.

Anyone have any luck with converting a FPSE site to a new server? Do you 
have a support forum to recommend that explains these more complicated 
settings in layman's terms?

Thanks.
