I have a Amazon Web Services Server with Ubuntu 11.10 installed I have insalled mono and i have successfully dployed ad launched a .NET webservice with xsp4. Now I want to host it on that server. I am trying to figure out how to set up Apache and mod_mono to use. I was told Apache is already installed by default. But I don't know where to find it. I am a complete Newbie with Linux!! Help Please!

This is probably what you want.

sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-mono mono-apache-server2 

Here are some informative links that should help you get started.

If you're only searching for which package to install, try the following command:

sudo apt-cache search keyword-here

So for instance,

sudo apt-cache search mod_mono

Gives this:

asp.net-examples - demo pages for ASP.NET infrastructure
libapache2-mod-mono - Apache module for running ASP.NET applications on Mono
mono-apache-server - ASP.NET backend for mod_mono Apache module - default version
mono-apache-server2 - ASP.NET 2.0 backend for mod_mono2 Apache module
mono-apache-server4 - ASP.NET 1.1 backend for mod_mono Apache module

The first package mentioned is not necessarily relevant, but the other lines tell you which packages have something to do with mod_mono, and what they do exactly.

Hope this helps!

    Thanks, Before you responded I ran the command: sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-mono. It went through and did what it needed. but now for the last hour I don't know what to do. it just said: Setting up mono-apache-server4 (2.10-1) ... * Reloading web server config apache2 [ OK ] * Restarting web server apache2 ... waiting . [ OK ]

    Yeah, I think it did that to me too (I did this a while back, memory's a bit foggy). I think i had opened a second terminal and issued the command sudo service apache2 reload; sudo service apache2 restart and apt had moved on after.. I think.

  • Ah! We're getting there :) This seems to be a problem with MIME types perhaps? What does ls /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/*mod_mono* say? Also, check out the post found here and see if it helps.
