Monotouch application not working when published to iPhone

Question

I'm in a bit of a pickle here. I have completely developed my application in Monotouch and tested it on the simulator. Everything works as it is suppose to. When I publish the app to my iPhone in debug or release, it uploads the application to the device yet I am greeted with the following stack trace and when I try to launch the application on the device, the startup Image is displayed and then it just quits unexpectedly. Im sorry but this is all the info I have on this and I hope someone can help me.

Stack Trace:

Please ensure your device is connected...

I know I might sound idiotic now but I am new to iPhone and Monotouch development and have no idea how to read or interpret this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

That's likely a version mismatch between components. Please fill a bug report and include:

• the version of MonoTouch;
• the version of MonoDevelop;
• the version of OSX;
• the version of Xcode;
• the type (which iPhone) and version of the iOS device;
• the complete build log (add "-v -v -v" to your project's Additional mtouch arguments) copy/pasted from MonoDevelop's Build Output (from the Error List pad).

The first four items you can get from within MonoDevelop. From the MonoDevelop menu, select the About MonoDevelop item, then the Version Information tab and copy/paste that data into the bug report.
