Ok I've updated my step 7 section, I think this is a lot better.
7) Configure Mod_Mono with Apache
Type: cd /etc/apache2/mods-available/
Type: pico mod_mono.load
This will create a new file, add the following lines to the file:
Include /etc/apache2/mod_mono.conf
MonoServerPath /usr/local/bin/mod-mono-server2
Press CTRL+X to exit Pico, answer "Yes" to save your changes.
Now we have to activate our new module.
Type: a2enmod mod_mono
Restart Apache by typing: /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
8) Make sure it all works!
...
Also I've changed all the tar commands to "tar -xvpjf" so the user can
see what's going on <g>
Also, *quick question* why doesn't the mod_mono.conf file just get built
into the /mods-available directory in the first place, along with a
mod_mono.load file? If this happened, I'd only need to tell users to
enable the mod and boom they'd be done. Maybe the build guys can comment?
Thanks for the feedback!

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!
Greetings,
Tinco
