[Mono-devel-list] Re: Signing problems

[Sebastien Pouliot]

Hello,

I know two problems that can results in this error.

First, an old (pre mono beta, like 0.31) Mono.Security.dll is being used
- but I doubt this is the case.

Second, the token mapping resides in machine.config. Without the mapping
(ECMA token to Mono public key) mscorlib can't be signed.

So the side-by-side installation probably results in having different
machine.config (one for each supported runtime), so my best guess is
that one of the (or the two ;-) machine.config files don't have the
mapping information (like the one that resides in CVS).
