can we deploy an asp.net web application developed in windows in ubuntu

Question

We have developed a web application in windows using visual studio 2005. Is it possible to deploy that application in linux using crossover. Is it possible to run crystal reports in asp.net using crossover.

I have used wine, and cross over and even mono. But it was not possible for me to develop crystal reports web application in ubuntu.

But I am able to develop windows application using c# with mysql database as backend and have used crystal reports. But it doesn't work for ubuntu

Please look at the below posts for more details:

Answer 1

You can now install visual studio code in Linux and compile it there. Microsoft's Visual Studio Code is an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) with support for Mac, Linux and Windows.

Answer 2

Yes.

Well, maybe.

You will probably have more luck with Mono than wine, but either way you're looking for pain.

Good luck.

Answer 3

As Shoham mentioned, Microsoft recently released Visual Studio Code, a lightweight, cross platform code editor. However, this doesn't exactly get you all the way to fully deploying .NET code on Ubuntu. In order to do that you also need to install the CoreCLR and the ASP.NET 5 . I've been trying to do exactly this in OS X, which should be very similar, but haven't quite gotten it working yet.
