color=#0000ff size=2>So, once the IP address changes and there is failure once,
is a reinstall necessary? Once I got back to the office, I'm fairly sure I
had the same dynamic IP I had before I left - should it have worked? On
development machines that use dynamic IP addresses, how can we be sure that this
does not happen?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=059261016-27072006><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>The MapGuide Server gives out it's IP address to the
Web Extensions and MapAgent when a Service is requested. The Server
interrogates the IP address for the machine when the mgserver process is
started. If the IP address of the machine changes while the mgserver
process is running then you will see the behaviour you have mentioned
below. The IP address is only given out to Service level operations.
The MapGuide Admin does not use the same functionality.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi,</FONT> <BR><FONT face=Arial size=2>I installed
MapGuide Enterprise with the .NET web extensions about two weeks ago on my
development machine and got everything re-configured, including WMS with the
newly required Bounds parameter. Well, after being on vacation and trying
to do some stuff with it today, it was mysteriously broken. Everything I
did that would access the web extensions would fail with:</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face="Times New Roman">Cannot establish connection. Exception occurred
in method MgServerConnection.Open at line 94 in file
c:\build_tux_area\mgdev\common\service\services\ServerConnection.cpp </FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Everything worked OK in MapGuide Admin (PHP based),
when running all of the mapagent tests, and when making WMS calls. Studio
would enumerate and display all resource information. But everything
related to rendering a map or a web layout would fail. I tried to run a
repair on the web extensions and that did not help. I had to uninstall and
reinstall the web extensions in order for the problem to disappear.
</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>We've seen this before with MapGuide Open, and it
appears to still be a problem. I did not install, uninstall, or
re-configure anything on this machine during this time period. The only
thing I did was disconnect it from it's home network and connect to the internet
through a hotel internet connection to check email. Very strange,
indeed.</FONT></P><BR>
