<p class="MsoNormal">Greetings moose people,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This is sort of 3 bug reports…<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Yesterday I dug around in Github code because I am mostly curious about how GM3 is implemented, not really trying to deploy it. I found that to be awkward because there appear to be several repos and I could not really tell what I needed
to do. So today I decided to try the NORMAL approach and use “quickstart” to set up a working GeoMoose demo server.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Working from <a href="https://geomoose.github.io/gm3/">https://geomoose.github.io/gm3/</a> Quickstart where I see there are 4 Quickstart options.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.25in"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">1 -- I am most comfortable with Linux so I started there “For developers on *nix-systems” … Docker image won’t build, missing pthreads library is the error. Spent a couple hours chasing that one.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I found some vague information online about debugging the problem in cmake but cmake is a foreign entity to me and I stalled out there.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">2 -- I am a developer so next I tried “For developers on Windows” but this appears to be only the Javascript browser portion, no server. So… call this ½ a stack? Incomplete instructions??<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I can successfully start up the empty GeoMoose framework with no data in it, but I have no idea what this is supposed to do for me so I stopped here.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">3 -- Finally I tried “For MS4W” and discovered the download links on page are broken. I can get MapServer but not Geomoose This page here
<a href="https://geomoose.github.io/gm3/ms4w-quickstart/index.html"><span style="color:blue">https://geomoose.github.io/gm3/ms4w-quickstart/index.html</span></a><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">4 -- I am not willing to spend time “Deploying on EC2” at the moment.
<span style="font-family:Wingdings">J</span> So I did not find any problems there.
<span style="font-family:Wingdings">J</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">OKAY after all of that I took a break, went for a walk, then felt reinvigorated so I dug around in the broken URLs in #3 and found the actual files in GeoMoose downloads. I have Apache and GM3 running on my puny Windows 10 laptop, for testing.<o:p></o:p></p>
