Trying to run an ASP.NET MVC application using Mono on Apache with FastCGI
- by Arda Xi
I have a hosting account with DreamHost and I would like to use the same account to run ASP.NET applications. I have an application deployed in a subdomain, a .htaccess with a handler like this:
# Define the FastCGI Mono launcher as an Apache handler and let
# it manage this web-application (its files and subdirectories)
SetHandler monoWrapper
Action monoWrapper /home/arienh4/<domain>/cgi-bin/mono.fcgi virtual
My mono.fcgi is set up as such:
#!/bin/sh
#umask 0077
exec >>/home/arienh4/tmp/mono-fcgi.log
exec 2>>/home/arienh4/tmp/mono-fcgi.err
echo $(date +"[%F %T]") Starting fastcgi-mono-server2
cd /
chmod 0700 /home/arienh4/tmp/mono-fcgi.sock
echo $$>/home/arienh4/tmp/mono-fcgi.pid
# stdin is the socket handle
export PATH="/home/arienh4/mono/bin:$PATH"
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/home/arienh4/mono/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH"
export TMP="/home/arienh4/tmp"
export MONO_SHARED_DIR="/home/arienh4/tmp"
exec /home/arienh4/mono/bin/mono /home/arienh4/mono/lib/mono/2.0/fastcgi-mono-server2.exe \
/logfile=/home/arienh4/logs/fastcgi-mono-web.log /loglevels=All \
/applications=/:/home/arienh4/<domain>
I took this from the Mono site for CGI. I'm not sure if I'm doing it correctly though. This code is resulting in this error:
Request exceeded the limit of 10 internal redirects due to probable configuration error. Use 'LimitInternalRecursion' to increase the limit if necessary. Use 'LogLevel debug' to get a backtrace.
I have no idea what's causing this. As far as I can see, Mono isn't even hit (no log files are created).
