There are methods for overcoming this on a server-by-server basis. The negative consequence is that all files are then processed by the Mono Server and you suffer a decrease in performance. This way, features and security are preserved. To overcome these problems, the recommended method for processing files is to send all requests directly to the FastCGI Mono Server. The web server can’t keep up with these kinds of changes and would just show an error page, directory listing, or whatever the default configuration may be. py extension to be handled by IronPython within the Mono Server. For example, an application may register index.py as its index page and for the. When an ASP.NET application is recognized by the FastCGI Mono Server, it loads configuration details that would affect how the site is displayed.

Config) which you may miss when specifying the extensions to block.

As ASP.NET was origianally written for the Windows operating system, many applications use case insensitive formatting (. Additionally, you may miss some files that should be private. This is typically any file that appears in an App_Data directory. Some files that would normally be hidden will be exposed. You could easily configure FastCGI to simply pass the 11 standard extensions to the FastCGI Mono Server and have all remaining files processed by standard methods, but you will suffer the following negative consequences: This makes configuring ASP.NET unique when compared to other FastCGI handlers you may have configured.

ASP.NET, on the other hand, uses a combination of file types, combined with programming paradigms like session objects, sandboxed environments, and private directories. Most programming languages used for web sites contain all their information within a single file format, for example, PHP uses the. The following servers support FastCGI, but we currently do not have per-server configuration information: Once you have installed the Mono FastCGI support, you have to configure your web server to use it, detailed instructions are available for the following servers:
#ABYSS WEB SERVER UBUNTU INSTALL#
To install the FastCGI on Unix, follow the instructions on the FastCGI Linux page.
#ABYSS WEB SERVER UBUNTU CODE#
If you obtained packages, you already have everything you need, otherwise you need to use the usual Linux source code configuration setup: $ tar xzvf xsp-1.2.6.tar.gz

The FastCGI Mono Server was developed as part of the 2007 Google Summer of Code with the goal of increasing the availablity of ASP.NET and simplifying configuration.
