Title:
  asp.net with apache does not seem to work on trusty

Status in “xsp” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I have filed this bug against asp.net-examples, but I don't really
  think, that this specific package is in error - it is just a good
  example of a generic error that has stopped me cold in testing my
  company's ASP.NET application on the Beta 1 of "trusty tahr".

  Of course I cannot upload our entire application in a bug report, so I
  was kind of relieved to observe, that the problem could be reproduced
  by means of asp.net-examples.

  When I install asp.net-examples on "saucy salamander", it presents a
  nice, simple web page demonstrating certain ASP.NET mechanisms.

  When I do the same thing on a pristine installation of "trusty tahr",
  I get this exception:

  System.Web.Compilation.CompilationException
  : Unhandled Exception:

  Description: Error compiling a resource required to service this request. Review your source file and modify it to fix this error.
  Details: : Unhandled Exception:

  I have the same bug on my company's larger ASP.NET application, and I
  have reproduced the bug both on a server version of trusty, and a
  kubuntu trusty desktop - exactly the same performance.

  It is pretty obvious to me that the bug is not in asp.net-examples;
  most likely it is related to the fact that the basic mono distribution
  takes a great version hop between saucy and trusty - from 2.10.8.1 to
  3.2.8.    Some feature is simply not working!  To be absolutely
  certain I rebuilt a fresh version of the xsp source package (source
  package for asp.net-examples)  and installed that instead of the
  official trusty version - made no difference, the bug is still there.

  The asp.net-examples package is using mono-apache-server2, by ways of
  its post-installation script. I have of course also tried mono-apache-
  server4, but that fails in an entirely different way that will be
  reported in a separate launchpad bug.

  This report is not made from the "trusty" installation, that one is a
  test installation without access to the net, so you don't get all the
  stuff that apport would collect to you.  Honestly, you don't need it
  to reproduce, just grab a pristine trusty installation and try it!

  However, a few important package versions:

  libapache2-mod-mono:  2.11+git20130708.6b73e85-4ubuntu1
  mono-complete: 3.2.8+dfsg-4ubuntu1
  mono-apache-server2: 3.0.11-1

  I am willing to offer any possible kind of assistance in fixing this
  problem - my company had looked forward to upgrade to "trusty".   But,
  to be honest, I don't think you really need my help - the problem is
  so trivial to reproduce, it ought to be pretty trivial to fix if you
  know the ropes.

  best regards
