[Mono-list] Unable to deploy an ASP.NET application

[Bradley, Peter]

Hi,

 

I've built an ASP.NET application using Visual Studio 2003, but am
having trouble deploying it to a Linux box on an Apache Web Server with
mod_mono and Mono 1.1.13.2.

 

It all works fine on my development box using IIS 6.

 

The ASP.NET application connects to a remote object that supplies
business logic and data access services.  This object has been installed
on the Linux box and tested using a S.W.F remote client, which calls it
successfully and receives the expected data back.

 

To deploy the ASP.NET application, I have copied all the files and
folders from the application directory on my development (Win2003
Server) box to the Linux box (including the bin directory).  On the
Linux box, I then modified the page directive at the top of each *.aspx
page to change CodeBehind="..." to Src="...".  I then restarted Apache.

 

The first page loads fine, but on attempting to load the second page,
which tries to instantiate the remote object proxy, I get the following
error:

 

Compilation Error

Description: Error compiling a resource required to service this
request. Review your source file and modify it to fix this error. 

Error message: /usr/lib/xsp/test/MSc/Name.aspx.cs(14,7) : error CS0246:
The type or namespace name `MscBusinessLogic' could not be found. Are
you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?
/usr/lib/xsp/test/MSc/Name.aspx.cs(14,1) : error CS0246: The type or

File name: /usr/lib/xsp/test/MSc/Name.aspx.cs 

Line 1: using System;

Line 2: using System.Collections;

Line 3: using System.ComponentModel;

Line 4: using System.Data;

Line 5: using System.Drawing;

Line 6: using System.Web;

Line 7: using System.Web.SessionState;

Line 8: using System.Web.UI;

Line 9: using System.Web.UI.WebControls;

Line 11: using System.Web.Security;

Line 12: using System.Security.Permissions;

Line 13: using System.Threading;

Line 14: using MscBusinessLogic;

Line 15: 

...

 

This suggests to me that perhaps the remoting configuration code has not
run successfully, although I could be wrong.  The code that carries out
the remoting configuration is in the Application_Start trigger, as
follows:

 

protected void Application_Start(Object sender, EventArgs e)

{

      RemotingConfiguration.Configure(Server.MapPath("MSc.config"));

}

 

The file MSc.config is in the application folder and contains the
following:

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

<configuration>

      <system.runtime.remoting>

            <application>

                  <client>

                        <wellknown

                              type="MscBusinessLogic.Msc,
MScBusinessLogicProxy"

                              url="tcp://localhost:48486/Msc" />

                  </client>

            </application>

      </system.runtime.remoting>

</configuration>

 

You can see that I've failed, to my shame, to be at all consistent in
case, but I believe I've checked all those pitfalls; and remember that I
do have the remote object being called successfully from a S.W.F.
application.

 

Is there some difficulty with Server.MapPath(), perhaps?

 

I would be very grateful for any help anyone can give me.  I've
exhausted all the avenues I can think of.

 

Thanks in advance

 

 

Peter
