[Mono-list] Server using mod_mono

Wed, 7 Jul 2004 23:26:39 -0400

Hi Patrick,
	By unmask, I assume this means you have all the mono 1.0 packages emerged 
(you would have had to do something like: ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge 
mod_mono).  xsp and mono should also be installed as dependencies for 
mod_mono.  If not, I would highly recommend you starting with the 1.0 
release.
	The configuration for apache is actually much simpler than before, and no 
longer requires that you manually start the mod-mono-server, because 
apache/mod_mono can now do this when needed.
	The configuration from my gentoo box is as follows:

--[apache2.conf]--
DocumentRoot /var/www/localhost/www
MonoExecutablePath "/usr/bin/mono"
MonoServerPath "/usr/bin/mod-mono-server.exe"
MonoApplications "/:/var/www/localhost/www"
MonoApplicationsConfigFile "/var/www/localhost/mono.webapp"
LoadModule mono_module     extramodules/libmod_mono.so
--[apache2.conf]--

--[commonapache2.conf]--
<Directory /var/www/localhost/www>
    #SetHandler mono
    AddHandler mono .aspx .ascx .asax .ashx .asmx .cs .config

    <IfModule mod_deflate.c>
      SetOutputFilter DEFLATE
    </IfModule>

    DirectoryIndex index.aspx
    Options -Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
    AllowOverride All

    <IfModule mod_access.c>
      Order allow,deny
      Allow from all
    </IfModule>
</Directory>
--[commonapache2.conf]--

Note: You will need to create the following file.  You can put it anywhere you 
like, but make sure it is referenced properly in the apache2.conf file, on 
the MonoApplicationsConfigFile.
--[/var/www/localhost/mono.webapp]--
<apps>
    <web-application>
        <name>Yoursite.com</name>
        <vpath>/</vpath>
        <path>/var/www/localhost/www</path>
        <!-- vhost and port are ignored in xsp.exe -->
        <vhost>www.yoursite.com</vhost>
        <vport>80</vport>
    </web-application>
</apps>
--[/var/www/localhost/mono.webapp]--

Once you have made these updates, make sure all mono processes are killed 
(killall mono), and then restart apache.  Once it starts, just point your 
browser at your site.

Hope this helps,
	Mike
