[Opensim-users] Error from "save oar"

Ok one problem I see..  now I have seen some in the past say it doesn't
matter.. but I have seen it does..  when you install tools and itils for
Linux put them in the ETC folder. this is where all the "extras" go such as
SQL and mono. even apache webserver will go in there. When it comes to
programs you run when you want, they go in the root folder. This keeps
everything nice and tidy. Also, when you goto compile mono, it will look for
certain libraries. IF those libraries are not in the environment, then it
will find the closest thing, Looks like its finding your mono 2.2. So put
2.4.2.3 in the etc folder where the others are. There is a reason WHY you
want to reboot and that is so the configs will update. If the environment is
set to old style it will come old style..  ( rough point i'm making here )
.. Keep in mind, its like your PATH setting in DOS. If two items are in a
row it will find the first one first. although a newer one is later down the
line. Mono reacts the same way as in all linux environments. Windows does
this too.

So bottom line, if all else fails.. delete the mono 2.2 folder as well as
other linux folders.. (( accept mono without the numbers )) and try
downloading compiling NANT and install and you should be good to go once you
reboot.
