RE: [Mono-list] New Beta1 Win32 installer
Hi That works a treat! Thanks. Dave -Original Message- From: Gonzalo Paniagua Javier [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 12 May 2004 05:08 To: Monkey Business; Mono Development; Mono Announce Subject: [Mono-list] New Beta1 Win32 installer Hola! I just uploaded a new Win32 installer that fixes lots of problem encountered in the previous ones: * Updated runtime to fix GAC path issues. * Generate working .bat for cmd.exe and shell scripts for cygwin. * Includes MSVCR70.dll. * CVS monop to fix assembly loading errors. You can download it directly from: http://www.go-mono.com/archive/beta1/windows/mono-Beta1-win32-2.exe or through the mono download page at: http://www.go-mono.com/download.html It does not include 2.0 preview compiler and assemblies, but I plan on doing more Win32 installer releases based on CVS including them. Special thanks go to Urs Muff for helping me while testing.

Hi Gonzalo Thanks for the update. Appreciate the effort you are making, I just wanted to be sure I hadn't missed something obvious when installing. Will test the latest build.

I am new to Mono, having used 0.31 before the beta, which installed and worked flawlessly. Well, no one provided a win32 installer that works and I decided to use the .nsi file in mono CVS to build the packages.Turned out that the existing file generated installers were pretty broken and I'm trying to build a good one and then reuse it for next releases. Hope to get it soon with the feedback people is sending. -Gonzalo ___ Mono-list maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list ___ This email has been scanned for all viruses by the MessageLabs SkyScan service.

[Mono-list] Mono Beta 1 on Windows
Hi Mono newbie here! I have successfully installed mono 0.31 on Windows 2000 XP using the setup program. Everything compiled fine. Just tried beta 1 on clean Windows 2000/XP sessions and cannot run any assemblies. All return cannot open assembly message, and mcs returns: ** (C:\Mono\lib\mono\1.0\mcs.exe:112): WARNING **: Could not find assembly System, references from C:\Mono\lib\mono\1.0\mcs.exe (assemblyref_index=1) Major/Minor: 1,0 Build: 5000,0 Token: b77a5c561934e089 Unhandled Exception: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object Am I doing something wrong or is there a genuine problem? Another quick point, I am looking to embed Mono into our applications. Currently we use VBscript to extend the products, but I am looking for greater speed and we are about to go cross-platform onto Linux/Unix. Which list is bets to ask questions about the embedding API on?

RE: [Mono-list] Mono Beta 1 on Windows
Hi Joel Well that fixed the mcs problem, but still can't run any assemblies, apart from simple HelloWorld using System. Also mbas doesn't seem to have been included which was what I wanted to investigate. Do I need Cygwin or .Net installed now? Version 0.31 was very good out of the box. This seems like a backwards step for Windows. Thanks Dave -Original Message- From: Joel Lucsy [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 07 May 2004 13:47 To: Dave Parsons Subject: Re: [Mono-list] Mono Beta 1 on Windows I posted shortly before you. A temporary solution is to copy all the dll's in the GAC subdirectories into the lib directory. For me, the dll's were found under C:\Program Files\Mono\lib\mono\gac and I put them in C:\Program Files\Mono\lib. I used explorer's search to find them, the copy-pasted into the lib.
