Apache2 doesn't load module mod_mono - CentOS 6

  • 772

I have compiled and installed Mono 3.0.6, XSP and mod_mono on CentOS, following mostly these instructions.

My VHOST is configured as such:

<VirtualHost *:80>
        ServerAdmin [email protected]
        DocumentRoot /var/www/mvcgui/wwwroot
        ServerName 192.168.40.132
#       ServerAlias example.com
        ErrorLog /var/www/mvcgui/error.log
        CustomLog /var/www/mvcgui/requests.log combined
        MonoServerPath mvcgui "/opt/mono/bin/mod-mono-server4"
        MonoDebug mvcgui true
        MonoSetEnv mvcgui MONO_IOMAP=all
        MonoApplications mvcgui "/:/var/www/mvcgui/wwwroot"
</VirtualHost>

However when I try to start the httpd service, I get an error:

Invalid command 'MonoServerPath', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration

So I'm thinking that my mod_mod is not loaded, but I do have a /etc/httpd/conf/mod_mono.conf configured like this:

[root@dev-server httpd]# cat /etc/httpd/conf/mod_mono.conf
# mod_mono.conf

# Achtung! This file may be overwritten
# Use 'include mod_mono.conf' from other configuration file
# to load mod_mono module.

<IfModule !mod_mono.c>
    LoadModule mono_module /usr/lib/httpd/modules/mod_mono.so
</IfModule>

<IfModule mod_headers.c>
    Header set X-Powered-By "Mono"
</IfModule>

What am I doing wrong? I've spent hours on this, and I've looked at many discussions here and other parts of the web and nothing seems to match my problem.

    I believe you are correct in saying that mod_mono is not loaded. This is because Apache his not reading your config file, and therefore never receives the instructions to LoadModule mono_module .

    but I do have a /etc/httpd/conf/mod_mono.conf

    Apache will not read /etc/httpd/conf/mod_mono.conf by default.

    You should move mod_mono.conf to /etc/httpd/conf.d, where it will get picked up when Apache is reloaded. Normally only the Apache 'main' configuration lives under /etc/httpd/conf/, while your new customizations, third party configuration files, etc. live under /etc/httpd.conf.d.

    Your main HTTPD configuration file at /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf should contain a section like the following. This tells Apache to look for additional config files under the conf.d directory.

    #
# Load config files from the config directory "/etc/httpd/conf.d".
#
Include conf.d/*.conf
