Hi All,

Ok.. I've got a site working fine on a shared server, and thought i'd give a linux vps a go.

I've install the latest Nightly snapshot for OpenSuSe 10.3, basic asp.net 2.0 stuff via xsp2 and lighttpd working.

Got mysql/latest build etc all configured/changes to Web.config, dll's etc. (Thanks Joe).

/Setup/Default.aspx runs perfectly. No errors.

I disable Setup.. And try the site..

Then I get this. (after enabling real messages)... (running Lighttpd+FastCGI)

====================================================================

(Same error if I switch to XSP2 also..)

Any Ideas ?

Hi Joe,

I logged a bug with the mono guys and got the following reply.

-> Sys.Web

The ebove backtrace doesn't come from the Mono version of System.Web.Extensions
- are you sure you're not using MS.NET System.Web.Extensions.dll (in the bin/
directory or in your GAC)?

I tried to reproduce the error without success (using mono trunk and 1.9.1
alike) - the only explanation that it throws the exception is in the first
paragraph.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Could this be the case ? Is there a wrong System.Web.Extensions.dll in the mono build ??

I performed the following steps..

1) CLEAN opensuse 10.3 image, install Mono 1.9.1 from go-mono download page.

2) Test basic hello world asp.net 2.0 page works.

3) created a directory called MOJO and setup apache Mod-Mono_Server2 application directories etc etc..

4) unzipper mojoportal-2-2-5-8-pgsqlreleasefiles-for-mono.zip and placed the webdirectory in the MOJO directory.

5) mojoportal-2-2-5-8-mysqldatalayer.zip and placed the DLL's into the MOJO/BIN directory

6) Overwrite the Web.config with the mysqldatalayer Web.config file.

7) Modify the login details for MySQL, Create a clean database

8) Run website/setup/default.aspx

9) Get tables/etc created ok, message to disablesetup. (ALL looking good)

10) Crash with the error.

Do I need to gacutil register anything ? should I have commented out more details in the mysqldatalayer Web.config ?

Any ideas.. (based on the mono guys feedback) ?

Andrew

PS.. Do you have a mono makefile ? so one can compile via text command line without monodevelop/gui ?

Just checked the mojoportal-2-2-5-8-pgsqlreleasefiles-for-mono.zip file from your website.

It does contain System.Web.Extensions.dll in the ZIP..

I'll delete the file and try again now..
