I've got mono - but it won't start up

[jadedrakerider]

I installed Mono libraries, and I tried to run MonoDevelop (both from the DMG and from Applications). I see the icon come up in the dock and bounce around like it's trying, but it won't get any farther than that. It just disappears.

Any idea what's going on?

p.s. I searched the Forum but couldn't find a similar question.

Have you tried starting monodevelop from the command line?

Do you see any error messages when trying?

I am having the same issue.  When run from the command line thi sis the error I get:

Cannot open assembly '/Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/Current/lib/monodevelop/bin/MonoDevelop.exe': No such file or directory

And to be clear, this is the version of MonoDevelop from the Preview 2 release with the RC1 release of Mono since RC 1 doesn't seem to have MonoDevelop included.

Yes, first I get this:

$ MonoDevelop
/usr/bin/MonoDevelop: line 33: [: too many arguments
WARNING: Cannot find Mozilla directory containing libgtkembedmoz.so. Some Addins may not be able to function. Please set MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME to your Mozilla directory.

Then it seems to take, but then it finds another error.

FATAL ERROR [2008-09-09 14:54:49Z]: MonoDevelop failed to start. Some of the assemblies required to run MonoDevelop (for example gtk-sharp, gnome-sharp or gtkhtml-sharp) may not be properly installed in the GAC.

So do I need to update my gtk libraries?

I do have x11 installed. Both the user and SDK package. I just re-installed them and it did it again.
