[Mono-list] Running ASP.Net 4.5 MVC Application on Mono

[Martin Thwaites]

You're running a fork, not mono's main, therefore you may (and probably
don't) have the latest version.  Try with the main repository.

The main thing missing in mono at the moment as far as I'm aware is the
async controllers and all the new identity stuff.

The @ syntax is the Razor View engine, that was MVC 3 and that works fine
on mono as all my sites use it.

To be honest it looks like an issue with configuration or your
installation.  Try running directly through monodevelop.  when you get the
view error, the actual compilation error appears in the output window.

Thanks
Martin
