I'm sure everyone appreciates the effort you ( and everyone else on the project ) puts into this stuff - I know I run your installers on windows. However the original post is hardly an all out flame on your efforts - its a reasonable description of a users problem - maybe mentioning you by name at the end was a little insensitive but seriously I've had far worse from users of projects I've worked on - paid and unpaid. Maybe you're just having a bad day.
I realize repeated criticism can be frustrating but your response seems out of all proportion to the original message - unless somthing else was sent that didn't get posted to the list.

by the way, i just wanted you to know I DO NOT GET PAID TO PUT UP WITH THIS CRAP FOR YOU. It would be different if you PAID for Mono and Ximian PAID me for developing Mono. However, this is not the case.

Hello,
I've just installed the latest Mono 0.30 for Windows (using the installer), and while previous releases (e.g. 0.28) worked fine for me, this one is a major problem.
Whenever I launch mint or mono to execute an assembly, it comes up with the following error:
The assembly mscorlib.dll was not found or could not be loaded. It should have been installed in the `e:/cygwin/home/danmorg/mono/install/lib' directory.
I've read BugID 50085. I have the PATH set to C:\Program Files\Mono-0.30\bin and C:\Program Files\Mono-0.30\lib . MONO_PATH is set to C:\Program Files\Mono-0.30\lib and MONO_CFG_DIR to C:\Program Files\Mono-0.30\etc\mono
All DLLs, including mscorlib.dll are present in 'lib' directory, I've also copied the DLLs to 'bin' just in case, but the error message remains.
Does it mean I have to install Mono into a new partition E: ? That is, until I compile Mono myself, I plan to do that this weekend. However, I wouldn't expect my users to do the same :(
Is there a quick workaround not requiring complete recompilation?
Regards,
Maciek Plewa
PS. This is a minor thing, but I thought I should mention it. The msvcr70.dll was not present on my computer (I have mscvr71.dll :), so I had to download it from the net and put it in Mono/bin directory. It seems this release of Mono for Windows wasn't tested by anyone else than the author (danmorg) himself. _______________________________________________ Mono-list maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
