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.
: 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-
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-
mono-complete: 3.2.8+dfsg-4ubuntu1
mono-apache-
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.

I have now added a bug on how there is a just as critical bug when one is using ASP.NET 4.0. I have reported two bugs because the behaviour of the two bugs is quite different. The other bug is here: https:/ /bugs.launchpad .net/ubuntu/ +source/ xsp/+bug/ 1293481
