[Mono-aspnet-list] MySQL Connector - Assembly Name invalid

Mon Oct 24 08:21:39 EDT 2011

I had the very same problem. I upgraded from Mono 2.10.4 to 2.10.5 and the
problem resolved itself. I have not combed the Mono class loader to
understand why. I found this problem to be particularly irritating because
the exception never tells you *why* the assembly name is invalid.

Also, have you checked Stack Overflow? There was at least 1 other question
similar enough to this one might help if the mono upgrade does not help.
