apache2 with mod_mono cannot be started. Error: undefined symbol: unixd_config

after installing mono from source and the steps to install mod_mono here http://r2d2.cc/2014/03/25/asp-net-mvc-under-linux-with-mono/ i ended with:

apache2: Syntax error on line 140 of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf: Syntax error on line 1 of /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/mod_mono.load: Cannot load /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_mono.so into server: /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_mono.so: undefined symbol: unixd_config

on my ubuntu linux 14.10. I tried install mono-complete first, with the same error, than i tried to install from github sources. mono is working fine (c# console test), but when i try to start the apache2 server, i get this error.

Line 140 is the line where the mono_load is called. All files seems to be there. i tried to google and find the issue - but now, after 5h this is my last hope...

Does someone have an idea what i can do?

thanks for your help! mike.

Just a very late followup to this question as I ran into the same error today on Ubuntu 16.04 after mod_mono upgraded. When searching the error, this is the first result that comes up, so I figured I'd update with what fixed it for me:

While previously, one installed the Debian 7 repos/packages for mod_mono to use with Ubuntu, apparently there is now an Ubuntu repo. Removing the Debian 7 repos and replacing with the Ubuntu 16.04 repos solved the issue.

Here's the link to the repos:

Thank you very much covener. you brought me to the right track. After investigating i found out that this is not completely true. If someone else is running into these issues - it seems that it something to do with ubuntu. I changed to debian 7, made an upgrade to jessie and used apache 2.4.10 with mod_mono there. and... its working! I gave ubuntu a try again, but didnt make it work. So im on debian 7.9 (8) now and everything is fine. Very strange. anyway. thanks. mike.

The module was not ported to work with apache 2.4.

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/developer/new_api_2_4.html

unixd_config
This has been renamed to ap_unixd_config.

unixd_setup_child()
This has been renamed to ap_unixd_setup_child(), but most callers should call the added ap_run_drop_privileges() hook.
