I've been trying to install mono ASP.NET onto my debian VPS and I am unable to do so.
I know I need mono which can support .NET 4.0 now.
I am unsure if I need XSP and mod_mono, or just mod_mono. The link http://mono-project.com/Mod_mono says I do, but other sources say I don't. And now I'm not sure. And on another website I saw that XSP2 exists, and XSP doesn't support .NET 4.0. I'm really not sure anymore!
Is there a way to set this up within debian so I can run C# .NET code?
Edit:
I'm told that xsp is dep for mod_mono ? And it's already part of it maybe?

The simple part is
It will get you the dependencies.
The tricky part is configuring your virtual hosts and integrate that with mod_mono's registered sites. Somehow in Debian there is going to be a directory under /etc (/etc/mono-apache-server?) with a file which you need to edit. This file looks a lot like an xsp2 config file (but XSP2 is not launched, but mono-apache-server2 depends on xsp2-core).
There are numerous resources on the web that try to guide you, but anytime I configured it I spent around an hour getting things right, and I never really got out of the 'confused' state.
Good luck
