Thanks Abe! We ran some tests on linux yesterday and things worked perfectly!
This is great news, thanks for the links. We only have 1 casing issue and fixed it.

Need a consultant to help? ;) While MVC is officially fully supported on Mono, you will more than likely run into some Windows-to-Linux issues. Often these things boil down to file path casing issues (Linux being case sensitive, Windows not). To address casing issues you can put Mono in IO compatibility mode. But for production-level sites you'll want to eventually remove the problems from your codebase and avoid IO compatibility mode. http://www.mono-project.com/IOMap Windows-to-Linux migration also assumes your app is written entirely in managed code. If you're calling COM objects or P/Invoking into a Windows APIs, then you'll have to find managed alternatives for these bits. The last possible source of cross-platform issues is missing functionality in Mono. This is probably the least likely because Mono implements a ghastly amount of the .Net Framework, and furthermore, ASP.NET is very complete. I've personally never run into missing functionality in Mono. But you'll want to run the MoMA tool just to be sure. http://www.mono-project.com/MoMA -Abe On Fri, Aug 21, 2009 at 2:24 PM, ClearMind<[email protected]> wrote: > > I have a web farm of windows 2k advanced servers..
