I have a mono (2.10.7) instance running and I'm trying to code some ASP.NET MVC 3 application but I just hit a wall I don't know how to pass.

First, I was getting an error about XSP4 not being found (launching a simple app from MonoDevelop 2.9.1 Beta), so I installed XSP from the Git repo (with the default options) and, after that, trying to launch the server, I get a missing reference pointing to Mono.WebServer v0.4.0.

I looked in the web for the Mono.WebServer DLL, found it, download it and put it into the GAC, and now I getting this errox64

Handling exception type FileNotFoundException
Message is Could not load file or assembly 'xsp4, Version=2.11.0.0, 
Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=0738eb9f132ed756' or one of 
its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

So now I don't really know what I'm missing (I just installed xsp4!).

I'm running Slackware x64 13.37 and all Mono packages but xsp4 (that got from the Git repo), am I missing something? could be that something is in the wrong place?

Thanks in advance!

I had the same problem. To correct, I added xsp4.exe, and Mono.WebServer2.dll Mono.Security.dll to the gac:

gacutil / i xsp4.exe
gacutil / i Mono.WebServer2.dll
gacutil / i Mono.Security.dll

  • `Failure adding assembly Mono.WebServer2.dll to the cache: The file specified is not a valid assembly.` – RichardJohnn May 08 '13 at 17:48
  • For me, this command removes xsp4.exe from the gac directory and now all the symlinks to it point nowhere. Not sure what's causing this behavior but proceed with caution. – sean_m Jul 03 '13 at 21:29

Where did you find the other mono packages? I think error is because xsp from git requires mono from git. Try getting package xsp2 from same place or compile mono from git also.
