<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Hi,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I got MapGuide Enterprise 2007 installed and running on my development box yesterday (XP Pro and IIS 5, .NET web extensions) and only ran into a couple of snags. I am still re-configuring everything to work with the new version and the biggest problem I have run into is WMS requests not working. Whenever a standard WMS request is made (such as </FONT><A HREF="http://localhost/mapguide/mapagent/mapagent.fcgi?request=GetMap&service=WMS&layers=Samples/Sheboygan/Layers/Hydrography&srs=EPSG:4326&bbox=-87.74,43.68,-87.69,43.815&width=500&height=500&format=image/png"><U><FONT COLOR="#0000FF" SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">http://localhost/mapguide/mapagent/mapagent.fcgi?request=GetMap&service=WMS&layers=Samples/Sheboygan/Layers/Hydrography&srs=EPSG:4326&bbox=-87.74,43.68,-87.69,43.815&width=500&height=500&format=image/png</FONT></U></A><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">) I am prompted with a browser File Download dialog to download mapagent.fcgi. Actually, the same thing happens with a non-WMS MapGuide GetMap request. Thanks to Thomas Tuerke for providing the HTML page to test this stuff a few days ago.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">WMS appears to be configured in Admin and I changed the default server name of localhost:8008 to localhost (by the way, Autodesk, saving WMS parameters from Admin does not work in IE 7 beta, I had to use Firefox). Also, the layers are properly exposed to WMS via Studio. The only difference I can see between this configuration and my older MGOS install on my production server is that the WMS server name still says (provide your server name), but it still works. I am able to successfully get WMS capabilities via </FONT><A HREF="http://localhost/mapguide/mapagent/mapagent.fcgi?REQUEST=GetCapabilities&SERVICE=WMS&FORMAT=text/xml"><U><FONT COLOR="#0000FF" SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">http://localhost/mapguide/mapagent/mapagent.fcgi?REQUEST=GetCapabilities&SERVICE=WMS&FORMAT=text/xml</FONT></U></A><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial"> and everything looks fine there. This problem almost looks like a mime type issue, but I am able to make the same calls to my older system and it returns an image.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">So, any ideas why the request is not returning an image?</FONT>
