XSP doesn't find libraries it needs to run .aspx files (.NET Asp page).

I did a small work around by adding:

/opt/mono/lib/mono/1.0 to MONO_PATH

It was long to find it ;)
This task depends upon

Reason for closing:  Fixed
Additional comments about closing:  the MONO_PATH variable is added by the installscript to the bash-starters

If you want to check a example of that:

http://www.cours.polymtl.ca/inf4402/tp3.tgz

Just unzip that in any directory... it needs sqlite2 to run.

You'll see that it starts the xsp web server alone.

Just point your navigator to http://localhost:8080/agenda.aspx.

You should run into the error

ok it would be nice if you send me something over to test it a bit more. I did some checks with the monodoc.aspx from the xsp testpages which also doesn't work. These are all pathes issues, but I have no clue where things should point to. Extending MONO_PATH to every possible dir under /opt/mono/lib/mono can't be an solution at all.

I can't send you something more... Cause it was only a small homework and I know nothing about ASP .NET. As a matter of fact, I just added one directory to it (1.0). Many of others directories under /opt/mono/lib/mono point to this one. I'll try to find an answer through debian or gentoo package.

Ok, I did some experiments with the pathes, still I'm not satisfied with it but there is progress. I just have the xsp shell startup wrapper export the /opt/mono/lib/mono/1.0 exported. So at least it picks up monos standard assemblies. I even got the monodoc handler in the test dir running, but this will never be done in a standard installation. I wonder if that ever was meant to work out of the box.
New sturtup script comes with xsp 1.0.5.
