[Mono-list] How do i tell Mono (for ASP.NET, C#) where to find MySQL.Data.MySqlClient

[Robert Jordan]

Hi,

You have to create web.config in the directory of the ASP.NET
application. Have a look at the test site that that gets
installed into $prefix/lib/xsp/test.

MySql.Data.MySqlClient is just a namespace. The assembly is
MySql.Data.
