Simone, <br />you have to copy fdo files in the BIN/FDO folder and add an entry to providers.xml.<br /><br />FDO for oracle comes with mapguide enterprise .If you are using MGOS, you can use Haris's King oracle provider (free download from <a href="http://www.sl-king.com">www.sl-king.com</a>) . He has also got a flash movie demonstrating how to use it. Haris himself , is a lot of help when you need it (availabel on mail and chat).<br /><br />I have not worked a lot with webstudio , but i feel if you are a beginner mapguide studio is the best<br /><br /><br /><br />-Shailesh<br /><br /><br /><blockquote style="PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #5167c6 2px solid; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px"><div style="FONT: 10pt arial">----- Original Message -----</div><div style="BACKGROUND: #e4e4e4; FONT: 10pt arial; font-color: black"><b>From:</b> Simone MapGuide <a href="mailto:simone.mapguide@gmail.com"><simone.mapguide@gmail.com></a></div><div style="FONT: 10pt arial"><b>To:</b> <a href="mailto:dev@mapguide.osgeo.org"><dev@mapguide.osgeo.org></a> , <a href="mailto:users@mapguide.osgeo.org"><users@mapguide.osgeo.org></a></div><div style="FONT: 10pt arial"><b>Cc:</b> </div><div style="FONT: 10pt arial"><b>Date:</b> Tuesday, December 19 2006 05:01 PM</div><div style="FONT: 10pt arial"><b>Subject:</b> [mapguide-users] Problems with connection to Oracle</div>Hello<br /><br /><br />I did the download the Autodesk Mapguide Studio trial version, but I can't add Data Connection. It opens a window called Connect to Data and it asks to select a feature provider, but it doesn't show anything provider installed. I am connected with the Mapguide Open Source Server and I installed the provider FDO for Oracle and provider FDO for ODBC, but I can't create a connection to Oracle. Is this a limitation of Trial version? How Can I solve this problem to create a Oracle connection? I have to do the download of the Autodesk FDO Provider for Oracle? <br /><br />If I use the Mapguide Web Studio Open Source, it doesn't show how I have to create connection with Oracle, it allows that I create only SDF or SHP data, but I need to connect with a extern database. How do I this in the Mapguide Web Studio Open Source?<br /><br />Regards,<br /><br />Simone.<br /></blockquote>
