Hi, everyone,
I am having problems viewing ".asp" files. I don't get any errors in
logs or on screen, when I try to open them I get the message
"unrecognized file type".
I have googled, and searched the mailing list but didn't see anything
that would help. I did try removing and reinstalling python which was
the only suggestion I found that might apply, but that didn't help.
Can anyone point me to a reference of troubleshooting this issue or
know the fix?
I guess it depends on what type of asp file and what you mean by "open".
asp can either by an "active scripting program" which is a proprietary
Microsoft scripting language or it can be an MPEG4 encoded file.
Do you want to view the file or edit it?
If you want to view the file, and it is the Microsoft web scipting
language, you need the server parsing part to make it readable. If not,
you can just open it with any text editor.
If it is an MPEG4 file, you need to open in with mplayer or something that
does MPEG4 asp files.
