[Mono-list] mono_jit_exec problem

[Fede]

Robert:

Thank you very much for your answer!
I tried setting the MONO_PATH environment variable to where the assemblies
are located and the mono command line program seems to do the same, it
doesn't run the main assembly.

The debug output shows that all referenced assemblies are loaded OK:

Is there something else I could try?


Thank you in advance,

Federico Omoto
