I am deploying an MVC3 project to a Mono linux box. I had the skeleton working pretty nice, but when I started filling in some models, views, and controllers, I got the error you see above.
There does not seem to be much documentation on this; what little I’ve seen suggests that it cannot find my System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations file, but I’ve set the dll to copy local and added it to the _bin_deployableAssemblies folder, with no success.
It seems like I’m missing something simple. Any guesses what it is?
It seems the problem goes away if I do NOT include the
System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations.dllfile when publishing.
