I have a simple ServiceStack web service that I have working on my Macbook with xsp. With a browser I can view the metadata page and the service is working.

I just installed mono, mod_mono, xsp on a Fedora 14 box. I can see that the mono_module is loaded by apache.

I copied myservice to /var/www/html/myservice. Using a browser I can not open the metadata page as I do with xsp on the Mac and of course the web service is not accessible.

What needs to change when going from xsp to apache/mod_mono?

ServiceStack was used to create a RESTful Web Service accessible by URIs not files with extensions. AutoConfiguration of mod_mono added all of the mime types and file extensions but not the simple path (URI) to a web service.

Solution: I added these lines to my httpd.conf to create a virtual path and to configure it to work with mod_mono.

Alias /info "/var/www/html/myService"
MonoApplications "/info:/var/www/html/myService"
<Location /info>
    SetHandler mono
</Location>

Now http://localhost:8080/metadata works just fine.
