Re: [Mono-list] Guide to installing Mono 2.4 on a clean Ubuntu 8.10 Server machine

[Mike Christensen]

Thanks!  I'm thinking the official way to do it is probably create a 
file called mod_mono.load in /etc/apache2/mods-available that has:

Include /etc/apache2/mod_mono.conf
MonoServerPath /usr/local/bin/mod-mono-server2

and then create the link in mods-enabled.  Isn't there actually some 
sort of "enable-mod" script that does this for you too, rather than 
using the ln command directly?

Would people prefer this?  Thanks!!

Hi Mike, I like your guide :)

I have one comment on step 7. What you do here is not the Apache way,
and may scare people since they have to edit the apache2.conf which
usually is a very large file.

  
7) Configure Mod_Mono with Apache

Type: cd /etc/apache2
Type: pico apache2.conf

Search for this section:
  # Include module configuration:
  Include /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/*.load
  Include /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/*.conf

Add the following line under the above lines:
  Include /etc/apache2/mod_mono.conf

At the end of this file, add the following line:
  MonoServerPath /usr/local/bin/mod-mono-server2

Press CTRL+X to exit Pico, answer "Yes" to save your changes and press
enter to use the same file name.

Restart Apache by typing: /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
    

Simpler would be to make a symbolic link in the
/etc/apache2/mods_enabled/ directory to the mod_mono.conf file like
so:

Type: ln -s /etc/apache2/mod_mono.conf /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/mod_mono.conf

And with that, it might also be a good idea to put MonoServerPath in
the mod_mono.conf file rather than in the apache2.conf. Since when one
would disable mod_mono, MonoServerPath would likely throw an error or
warning or at least be totally useless.

Great work!

Tinco
