I recently took two actions and no longer have a stable Monodevelop environment.
As soon as I installed EF6, I started experiencing instability in my application. I decided to remove the package, and Monodevelop crashed. Upon reboot, I've lost the ability to open my ASP.Net project.
When I go to load my project, it has a yellow warning icon over and states:
The ASP.NET plug is not installed
When I go to addins, I get an error message stating that MonoSoftDebugger for ASP.NET
cannot be installed because MonoDevelop.Aspnet v5.7
is not available.
I did attempt to purge my whole mono setup and reinstall, but no differences. I have also tried loading other ASP.Net Projects, all are experiencing the same issue.
Extra Details
OS: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
install method: apt-get install monodevelop
respository: deb http://download.mono-project.com/repo/debian wheezy main
I've pushed a workaround to this to the Debian repository (RPM will take another hour maybe).
The workaround should get the addin working with basic ASP.NEt and MVC1-3, but is missing support for MVC4 which is in the Windows/Mac Xamarin Studio. This was also the case with 5.5, so it shouldn't affect you in this instance.
