I was hoping to use Monorail on a small project where the hosting is shared. I'm not using Windsor, but I am encountering a security/partial trust exception.
I'm thinking that I am probably just out of luck, but I wanted to post about it in case there is a solution.

I have not dug deeply into exactly where this exception is occuring. I assume it's related to trying to instantiate the controller.
(The host is CrystalTech.com in case anyone is curious).

The exception is:

I've heard that the solution is to compile castle without signing it.

From the How to build.txt:

Compiling a version not strongly signed
---------------------------------------

> nant -D:sign=false

I have the same problem. In addition I tried to build last night with the "nant -D:sign=false" command and I have no luck. I am trying to use a Shared Hosting plan for this.

This is a sample of the failure output:

In trying to build unsigned it appears that unless signed, castle does not build.

=(

Does anyone know a method that successfully builds unsigned?

Hammett, thank you very much for the response. I downloaded the latest src from SVN, and I cannot build.

I have tried the following:

Hammett, with your suggestion I was able to build the latest code from SVN to the point where I can use the output. I still fail, but I believe the failure is because I am missing "wix". Also, inside facilities.build I had to comment out the following line:

You don't need to specify release.build package-net-2.0

The default target will be enough.

I must not be doing something right, I cannot get the default.build to compile correctly at all. I am getting errors trying to locate the snk file. I have downloaded the source several times and cannot find this file.

Any ideas? Do I need to generate this key file myself?

Edit:
Ok got the key from the svn repo, and now things are trying to compile but I still get errors generally concerning "Test" and if I am missing a reference or something.

I have a really neat idea, since Castle as recognized this as a issue for shared hosting, why not make a build that already has this set. I am sure this would only lead to more people using the project. I work for CrystalTech Web Hosting and am a project lead for DotNetNuke, from what I have seen so far of MonoRail, I would love to endorse it for use in shared environments. I think this product really bridges the gap between a solution like DotNetNuke and rolling your own for more nimble smaller foot print apps.

Sorry for the ramble, must be a little bit of the frustration. Overall I like all the work and want to thank you "guys" for a great job.
Very Happy

Castle Project already has a support for shared enviroments (partially trusted).

Just run:

nant -D:assembly.allow-partially-trusted-callers=true

But, seems that you have been problems with the test cases. In that case, the how to build file shows how you can turn off the test cases.

Henry,
yes the how to build file does show this, but what I am asking for is not a way in which potential users can do this themselves, rather a pre-built package that already has this done. This way all they have to do is download it and use it.

Also, this would be helpful for the MSI package as well. One that is already built with APTCA set. I ask this as I really like this project and I want to see it grow. One way in which to do this is make it as easy to use as possible. I realize that this is an open source project (I too work for an open source project in the form of DotNetNuke). If the projects goal is to be used and to expand it's user base, this is only a natural progression.

Also, can anyone tell me what exactly does not work with APTCA set? All of our ASP.NET 2.0 Shared hosting servers allow reflection permissions, but I would like to know what else in the Castle Project will not work. the overall goal would to make a KB article that our customers could use to help them set-up a Monorail site or to make use of the other Castle Projects.

I hope no one thinks I am being a complainer on these matters. I truly believe in the work you guys are doing and would like to help promote it in any way I can.

Ok, I'll suggest it for the next release. Tks.
