[Mono-list] WCF service using JSON over Ajax possible on mono?

[Olli Heiskanen]

Hi,

I found that one person has had a similar issue than what I'm having,
although this does not tell how to fix the situation.

Here's a link to the question:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20882497/issues-with-running-wcf-services-on-debian-using-mono

Problem seems to be that xsp wsdl exporter has some parts not implemented.
Apparently I have something broken in my installations but I don't know how
to fix it. I tried re-installing xsp (from git master) but that had no
effect, I still have that same error.

Is there any way xsp can be installed so this error could be avoided? Does
the compiler used to compile mono or xsp matter here?

I hope you guys can help me solve this error, I really need to get mono
working.

cheers,
Olli
