Hello all,

I have a rest service application which is running on IIS. I wish to make this independent of IIS, so that we could use it in linux machine too(I believe so). I have read that, asp.net self-host API can be used to create IIS independent web applications.
I would like to know how I can convert my existing REST application into self-host application. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Sebastian

You can use Mono for ASP.NET of apache for asp. I do not know the way with apache but I used mono once. Everything ok but not all codes can be compatible with mono. Some of the libraries are not imlemented yet and some codes can not run. I do not know he last situation of mono because I used it one year ago.

Here is thw ways:
ASP: http://www.apache-asp.org/[^]
ASP .NET: http://www.mono-project.com/ASP.NET[^]
