Can any ASP.net application (or most of them) run on Linux using Mono?

Question

In other words, now that we have Mono, does C # become the same OS agnostic as Java when it comes to server-side web applications? Or are there still big limitations related to what Mono can / cannot do, or maybe which libraries may be available for a C # server application on Linux?

Answer 1

The answer to ' can any (or most of them) ASP.NET applications work,' is Yes . There is a page with some common traps: Mono: Porting ASP.NET applications (also of interest Porting a WinForms application page )

The most common problems that I saw in the field [1], by the number of occurrences:

• Code that does not know case-sensitive file systems or carelessly treats files / paths. These requirements require work .
• P/Invokes: P/Invokes Windows. Mono ( unix). (CloseHandle ..). .NET API.
• : , 3M+. ( , 24 ). , . , .
• API: . Moma (. ) .
