Hi friends,

I amd trying to host already developed asp.net application on linux platform using mono. anyone of you familiar, then please respond?

Hello,

Why do you prefer Linux? What is the point to host ASP.NET app on Linux box?

Check the Mono forums at the Mono Project for help.

 I was able to stand up  .NET2.0 application and web-service in Linux using mod_mono with no problems. The things to watch for are...

1. The obvious ones, like case-sensitivity to files/links
2. If your Web-Service WSDL issues standards/compliance warnings in Windows/IIS, these might be errors in mono. In general its probably a good idea to address these anyway.
   

The only real learning curve for me was apache. Not difficult, just different from IIS. Once you're comfortable with apache, the mod/mono config is trivial.

The other unfortunate part is that it supports the 2.0 framework pretty well now, but ASP.NET 3.5 is still a year out.  Though LINQ is due out in the next few months I believe.

By the way, silly as it sounds, you can run Mono in Apache on Windows and avoid the Linux learning curve.  :)
