I needed MVC 4 (and basic .NET 4.5) support so I downloaded mono 3.0.2 and deployed it on an lighttpd 1.4.28 installation, together with xsp-2.10.2 (was the latest I could find).

After going through the config tutorials I managed to get the fastcgi server to spawn, but all pages are served empty. even if I go to nonexistant urls or direct .aspx files I get an empty HTTP 200 response.

The log file on Debug shows nothing suspicious.

Here is the log:

lighttpd config:

server.modules += ( "mod_fastcgi" )

include "conf.d/mono.conf"

$HTTP["host"] !~ "^vdn\." {
    $HTTP["url"] !~ "\.(jpg|gif|png|js|css|swf|ico|jpeg|mp4|flv|zip|7z|rar|psd|pdf|html|htm)$" {

fastcgi.server += (
    "" => ((
        "socket" => mono_shared_dir + "fastcgi-mono-server",
        "bin-path" => mono_fastcgi_server,
        "bin-environment" => (
                "PATH" => mono_dir + "bin:/bin:/usr/bin:",
                "LD_LIBRARY_PATH" => mono_dir + "lib:",
                "MONO_SHARED_DIR" => mono_shared_dir,
                "MONO_FCGI_LOGLEVELS" => "Debug",
                "MONO_FCGI_LOGFILE" => mono_shared_dir + "fastcgi.log",
                "MONO_FCGI_ROOT" => mono_fcgi_root,
                "MONO_FCGI_APPLICATIONS" => mono_fcgi_applications
        ),
        "max-procs" => 1,
        "check-local" => "disable"
    ))
)
    }
}

the referenced mono.conf

index-file.names += ( "index.aspx", "default.aspx" )
var.mono_dir = "/usr/"
var.mono_shared_dir = "/tmp/"
var.mono_fastcgi_server = mono_dir + "bin/" + "fastcgi-mono-server4"
var.mono_fcgi_root = server.document-root
var.mono_fcgi_applications = "/:."

The document root for this server is /data/htdocs. The asp.net files reside there.

lighttpd error logs show nothing.

Every help is greatly appreciated!

lighttpd is working, but your mono backend doesn't produce any output, and ends the request:

[2012-12-12 15:15:38Z] Debug   Record sent. (Type: EndRequest, ID: 1, Length: 8)

Also you can see your mono app got all the request data it should; now it has to start handling the request.
