cannot run .NET application using mono port

[fcaccava]

Hi,
I have installed the mono port and the linux compatibility port successfully. When I try to run my exe (which is a .NET application using a shared library), mono loads the application, but seems that mono cannot find/load the shared library.

The same .NET application runs fine with mono on SUSE Linux.

Below are the errors I am seeing -- any advice on getting mono to load the shared library would be appreciated.

Thanks

Well, QueryPerformanceFrequency is a Win32 function. Are you calling it somewhere within your application (using P/Invoke)?

If not, you can enable debug logging for mono by running this command (on the FreeBSD command line):

setenv MONO_LOG_LEVEL debug

Then, run your application via mono. With logging enabled, it's usually best to redirect the output to a file so you can read it later and/or submit it for a bug report:

mono MyApplication.exe > mono_debug.log

If you're sure it's not a problem in your code, then file a bug report on the Mono BugZilla account: http://bugzilla.xamarin.com
