 out full screens of warnings because of all the warning flags that are
 passed along to jay because they're passed to mono. If anyone has a better
 solution to this issue, it'd be great to see it implemented.

Since jay is only used on the host, compiling it for the target is
simply wrong. Imagine you're cross compiling for ARM: what is
an arm-jay good for other than breaking the build on the host?

[Mono-dev] Architectural decisions behind mod_mono

2009-03-08 Thread Hiawatha

Hi all - I'm investigating the possibility of porting a site from
.NET/Windows Server to Apache/Mono and am doing some homework about running
Mono applications on the web.  As it stands, it seems the two choices are
XSP, which is designed to be a test/debug server and not for highly scalable
production applications, or mod_mono which is a module that is compiled into
Apache.  From what I understand, mod_mono requires mod_mono_server which
answers inbound requests over a TCP/IP socket.  I'm having a hard time
understanding this design. First off, for every inbound socket opened in
Apache, a new socket is opened for mod_mono_server, along with all the
overhead on the network stack.  In the Windows world, IIS hosts the CLR in
process and the two are very tightly integrated.  What's stopping Mono from
incorporating this design?

I'm assuming Java does not have a separate Java server which Apache forwards
requests to.

Can't Apache just be configured to natively run Mono applications in
process?  Would this be a massive architectural change to the Mono runtime? 
As it stands right now, I don't see a possibility for any MySpace/Facebook
level web applications running on Mono because I simply can't see mod_mono
being able to scale to that level.

Perhaps some of the hard core Mono runtime guys can comment, I'm sure
they're 843x smarter than I am and there's very good reasons why mod_mono
was designed the way it is, but I'm wondering how this compares with PHP,
Java, etc which all seem to be tightly integrated in with Apache.  Are there
any plans to incorporate the Mono runtime directly into Apache, or maybe
write a highly performant Mono server similar to Sun's Java Web Server?  I'm
not trying to criticize any design decisions, I'm very new to Mono and UNIX
server architecture and am just trying to understand the reasons behind
this.  Thanks!!

Mod_mono + mod-mono-server are using unix sockets by default. This
is the default IPC machinery under Unix.

The TCP option is only useful if mod_mono and mod-mono-server are
hosted on different machines.

IIS + MS ASP.NET are communicating using named pipes, the default IPC
machinery for Windows. Do you see the parallels?

 
 I'm assuming Java does not have a separate Java server which Apache forwards

You're wrong. Tomcat, the most employed servlet container, is running
in its own process.

 Can't Apache just be configured to natively run Mono applications in
 process?  Would this be a massive architectural change to the Mono runtime? 

It's almost impossible because ASP.NET was not designed to be hosted
inside a short living process.

Because the Apache guys have no incentive to hard code or go out of 
their way in Apache to work with Mono like the IIS guys do for the CLR. 
And it's better this way.

There is, you should configure with --disable-mcs-build when cross- 
compiling. Just copy over mcs and libraries from a standard build on  
your host. Jay is a build tool, it's not needed at runtime on the  
target system.

Passing --disable-mcs-build would pretty much accomplish what I 
described in my last post--I'd have to do the build in two phases 
anyway, remembering to pass CC=gcc and not CC=distcc when doing the mcs 
build. I'll just do things that way from now on--I didn't know about 
that flag (I must've missed it when I was perusing configure.in).

The cost of doing local IPC, be it with unix sockets or tcp/ip, is minimal.
The cost
in terms of reliability is, on the other hand, big.

This is a very common setup, it's the recommended way with Java, Ruby and
Python, at least.

The advantage is that the target running the application can crash without
making the whole
machine unavailable. The other is that it's easier to periodically restart
the back-end to be
sure things like memory leaks don't bring the machine down.

In the end, it's a choice that gives a very small performance penalty in
trade of a huge reliability gain.
It's much better this way and I don't see any compelling reason to move to a
worse configuration.

Re: [Mono-dev] Architectural decisions behind mod_mono

2009-03-08 Thread Hiawatha

Wow these are all really great replies!  Thanks for the info.

I think I was under the idea it was using TCP/IP sockets to communicate
between processes and that was making me scratch my head.  I'm kinda curious
as to why Mono hasn't really caught on as a web platform, as far as
performance it should blow the doors off PHP stuff right?  My only guess is
it's kinda from the Microsoft world and there's a lot of anti-MS Unix
people out there.  The .NET fans are probably gonna just stick with Windows.

I'm working on a new site and am very interested in cloud server solutions,
but most of the cloud providers like Mosso and Slicehost are UNIX based,
plus the idea of being able to cheaply deploy new servers (or virtual
machines) with no software cost is very attractive.  Thanks for clearing
this up!

[Mono-list] GTK-Sharp Problems

2009-03-08 Thread b0wter

I've played around a little with monodevelop and tried downloading and
installing the mono 2.2 which worked fine.
But then i noticed that i couldnt start
[url=http://banshee-project.org/]Banshee[/url], a mono based multi media
player, any more.
I get lots of text in a terminal but the most interesting part seems to be:

The assembly was not found in the Global Assembly Cache, a path listed in
the MONO_PATH environment variable, or in the location of the executing

I tried to create a new monodevelop Gtk+ app. Building it works fine but
whenever i try to start it i get the following error:

I tried to install Gtk Sharp 2.12 manually, which seemed to work fine, i
didnt get any errors (but i missed the optional dependancies cairo mono 
and another one i dont remember).
So i tried to figure out if glib-sharp is installed correctly:

Hi,

Your best bet would be to undo everything you've done to install
mono/monodevelop/gtk-sharp and then install the versions supplied in your
package manager instead. You have a broken install and I couldn't even begin
to offer any sort of hints on how to fix it unless i knew exactly what was
on your system before and exactly what you did to 'download and install mono
manually'.

You can either use an apache rewrite rule (if you're using

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/rewrite/rewrite_guide.html

Or hook HttpApplication's
BeginRequest to route the request to another file:

global.asax:

protected void Application_BeginRequest (object sender, EventArgs e)
{
// map inexistent files to bar.aspx
if (!File.Exists (Request.PhysicalPath))
Context.RewritePath (/appname/bar.aspx);

or this

protected void Application_BeginRequest (object sender, EventArgs e)
{
map foo.aspx to bar.aspx.
if (Request.FilePath == /appname/foo.aspx)
Context.RewritePath (/appname/bar.aspx);

Hi,

thats what i tryed before i posted here. Sorry that i missed to mention
that.
But i dont know what to do for an all new clean installation. I guessed i
have missed some steps the last time i tried (I just used my packet manger
to remove all packages that i found searching for mono and having to do
something with the framework).

 Hi,
 
 Your best bet would be to undo everything you've done to install
 mono/monodevelop/gtk-sharp and then install the versions supplied in your
 package manager instead. You have a broken install and I couldn't even
 begin
 to offer any sort of hints on how to fix it unless i knew exactly what was
 on your system before and exactly what you did to 'download and install
 mono
 manually'.
 
 Alan.

  Well, they did make a deal with this company called Novell to
  collaborate on
  virtualization technology, if I'm not mistaken. ;)
 
  But hey, it's called Virtual PC 2007, so we can't expect it to run
  2009
  software. For that we have to wait for the next big release, buy a
  Windows
  upgrade and then upgrade our hardware to make it run as fast as
  before.
  That's their interest. :)
 
  Yeah... I guess you are right :)

 On a more serious note, if you don't want to buy VMware you could try
 QEMU. It's not as comfortable to use but Linux runs pretty well there,
 including some non-x86 platforms.

2009-03-08 Thread eschnei...@schneidersoft.com
Hello,

I tried running my mono application and it says it can't find 
Microsoft.VisualBasic ? 

The app is in VB but I just installed the mono-complete package through 
Yast..

Any ideas?
