I'm new to ubuntu and tying to install latest mono on ubuntu. When I issued the command

make get-monolite-latest

but i got this error message

rm -fr /home/avalon/monobuild/mono/mcs/class/lib/monolite-* mkdir -p
    /home/avalon/monobuild/mono/mcs/class/lib test ! -d
    /home/avalon/monobuild/mono/mcs/class/lib/monolite || test ! -d

Someone said the latest version of monolite is now 111 not 110 anymore but i don't know how to apply the link changes to "make get-monolite-latest" command to install monolite compiler

  • Did you try downloading from the github repository:https://github.com/mono/mono/tree/mono-3.2.6-branch and then the instructions given below it? – jobin Jan 07 '14 at 16:50

You can override the URL with command line argument:

make monolite_url=http://storage.bos.xamarin.com/mono-dist-master/latest/monolite-111-latest.tar.gz get-monolite-latest

Also note that in version 111, gmcs.exe was renamed to basic.exe

So run:

make EXTERNAL_MCS="${PWD}/mcs/class/lib/monolite/basic.exe"

Me too have faced the same issue now. And found that url is down and changed to something else.

Solution is from make file I took this commands

cd $(mcslib) && { (wget -O- $(monolite_url) || curl $(monolite_url)) | gzip -d | tar xf - ; }
cd $(mcslib) && mv -f monolite-* monolite

I modified it and ran them on shell. by replacing the $(mcslib) with the path of my mono source's mcs lib.
And $(monolite_url) with the correct url.

So in my case path was /home/ubuntu/softwares/mono

cd /home/ubuntu/softwares/mono/mcs/class/lib && { (wget -O- http://storage.bos.xamarin.com/mono-dist-master/latest/monolite-111-latest.tar.gz|| curl http://storage.bos.xamarin.com/mono-dist-master/latest/monolite-111-latest.tar.gz)| gzip -d | tar xf - ; } 
cd /home/ubuntu/softwares/mono/mcs/class/lib && mv -f monolite-* monolite

and then you can run

make EXTERNAL_MCS="${PWD}/mcs/class/lib/monolite/gmcs.exe"

hope this will solve your issue as well.
