[Mono-list] I cannot get working Mono with MySql connector and the System.Data.Common namespace

[vtortola]

Hi,

I've a small web project that uses the DbProviderFactories. I've downloaded
the non-install version of the MySql Connector, the dll is copied to the bin
directory correctly.

I've added the configuration to the web.config file:

  <system.data>
      <DbProviderFactories>
        <add name="MySQL Data Provider" invariant="MySql.Data.MySqlClient"
description=".Net Framework Data Provider for MySQL"
             type="MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlClientFactory, MySql.Data,
Version=6.2.3.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=c5687fc88969c44d"/>
      </DbProviderFactories>
    </system.data>

It's working in my two windows/.net machines (one for development, and other
for testing in Hyper-V), but I cannot make it work in the machine with
linux/mono, I always get an error that says it cannot find the data
provider.

Should I do something special in Mono for make this work? I've checked
several documents and they don't say anything.

Kind regards.

PS: This is the error:
