I managed to install ASP.NET 5 (1.0.0-rc1-update1) on a Raspberry Pi 3 with Raspbian Jessie!

I mainly used the following three sources to get it up and running for me:

Point in Time

At my point in time, I’m using the following versions:

  • Raspbian Jessie Version February 2016
  • Mono Repository (intentionally wheezy because jessie does not have armhf Packages yet)
  • ASP.NET 5 1.0.0-rc1-update1 (Latest commit 1efd101)
  • libuv v1.8.0

Step 1 - INSTALL MONO FROM THE MONO PROJECT’S REPOSITORIES

Used OPTION 1: INSTALL MONO FROM THE MONO PROJECT’S REPOSITORIES from How to run ASP.NET 5 Beta 3 or GoLang on a Raspberry Pi 2.

Use Debian Wheezy Repository from Mono Project

sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 3FA7E0328081BFF6A14DA29AA6A19B38D3D831EF
echo "deb http://download.mono-project.com/repo/debian wheezy main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mono-xamarin.list
sudo apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install mono-complete

Step 2 - Install libuv

From the ASP.NET 5 documentation: Install libuv

sudo apt-get install make automake libtool curl
curl -sSL https://github.com/libuv/libuv/archive/v1.8.0.tar.gz | sudo tar zxfv - -C /usr/local/src
cd /usr/local/src/libuv-1.8.0
sudo sh autogen.sh
sudo ./configure
sudo make
sudo make install
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/src/libuv-1.8.0 && cd ~/
sudo ldconfig

Step 3 - Install ASP.NET 5

Used ADDING ASP.NET 5 MODIFIED from How to run ASP.NET 5 Beta 3 or GoLang on a Raspberry Pi 2.

Install dnvm - .NET Version Manager

mkdir ~/sources
mkdir ~/sources/aspnet5
cd ~/sources/aspnet5
git clone git://github.com/aspnet/home.git
sh ~/sources/aspnet5/home/dnvminstall.sh
source ~/.dnx/dnvm/dnvm.sh
dnvm upgrade

Add Certificates for NuGet

CERTMGR=/usr/local/bin/certmgr
sudo $CERTMGR -ssl -m https://go.microsoft.com
sudo $CERTMGR -ssl -m https://nugetgallery.blob.core.windows.net
sudo $CERTMGR -ssl -m https://nuget.org

mozroots --import --machine --sync

Step 4 - Restore Sample-Project

NuGet Restore for Linux - dnu

cd ~/sources/aspnet5/home/samples/1.0.0-rc1-update1/HelloMvc
dnu restore

Step 5 - Run Webserver

cd ~/sources/aspnet5/home/samples/1.0.0-rc1-update1/HelloMvc
dnx web

Open Webpage http://localhost:5004 and voilà!
