Mono

You want to run .NET websites behind Nginx and don't want to use Windows to do it. Spiffy.

Here's the virtual host configuration you'll want.

server { server_name profarius.com; root /var/www/webapp; index index.html index.htm index.aspx default.aspx; location = /favicon.ico { log_not_found off; access_log off; }       location = /robots.txt { allow all; log_not_found off; access_log off; }       location / { try_files $uri $uri/ /index.aspx; }       # Fighting with ImageCache? This little gem is amazing. location ~ ^/sites/.*/files/imagecache/ { try_files $uri $uri/ @rewrite; }       location ~* \.(js|css|png|jpg|jpeg|gif|ico)$ { expires max; log_not_found off; }

location ~ \.(aspx|asmx|ashx|asax|ascx|soap|rem|axd|cs|config|dll)$ { fastcgi_pass  127.0.0.1:9000; fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME  $document_root$fastcgi_script_name; include       fastcgi_params; } }

Note the above where you pass to 127.0.0.1:9000. This is a TCP socket that is launched as such.

fastcgi-mono-server2 /socket=tcp:9000

You could also bind it to a UNIX socket which is recommended. fastcgi-mono-server2 /socket=unix:/tmp/fastcgi.socket
