[Mono-list] mscorlib.dll problem on Windows - yes, once again :(

[Daniel Morgan]

by the way, i just wanted you to know
I DO NOT GET PAID TO PUT UP WITH THIS CRAP FOR YOU.  It would be different
if you PAID for Mono and Ximian PAID me for developing Mono.  However, this
is not the case.

Have some fucking respect for people!

Hello,

I've just installed the latest Mono 0.30 for Windows (using the
installer), and while previous releases (e.g. 0.28) worked fine for me,
this one is a major problem.

Whenever I launch mint or mono to execute an assembly, it comes up with
the following error:

The assembly mscorlib.dll was not found or could not be loaded.
It should have been installed in the
`e:/cygwin/home/danmorg/mono/install/lib' directory.

I've read BugID 50085. I have the PATH set to C:\Program
Files\Mono-0.30\bin and C:\Program Files\Mono-0.30\lib . MONO_PATH is
set to C:\Program Files\Mono-0.30\lib and MONO_CFG_DIR to C:\Program
Files\Mono-0.30\etc\mono

All DLLs, including mscorlib.dll are present in 'lib' directory, I've
also copied the DLLs to 'bin' just in case, but the error message remains.

Does it mean I have to install Mono into a new partition E: ? That is,
until I compile Mono myself, I plan to do that this weekend. However, I
wouldn't expect my users to do the same :(

Is there a quick workaround not requiring complete recompilation?

Regards,

Maciek Plewa

PS. This is a minor thing, but I thought I should mention it. The
msvcr70.dll was not present on my computer (I have mscvr71.dll :), so I
had to download it from the net and put it in Mono/bin directory. It
seems this release of Mono for Windows wasn't tested by anyone else than
the author (danmorg) himself.
