[Mono-list] mkbundle and crosscompiling

[Matthijs ter Woord]

That's the whol problem, I only have got mono running inside VMWare locally, which is FC4. The server is running RHEL 3 AFAIK.

  run /lib/libc.so.6 and you'll get your glibc version. Probably on the hosting server there's an older version of glibc than the one on your system. Try making your bundle on a computer that has the same glibc version as the hosting server.

When i run my executable on the server which doesn't have mono installed
(the ISP doesn't want to install it), i get the following message:

./a.out: /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.3.4' not found (required by
./a.out)

Greets,
