 {{{

 I have managed to build MGOS2 on Ubuntu 7.04 with help from Jason's
 great instructions on the wiki. However, when I try and make a new
 data connection with either postgis or ogr I get errors.

 In mapguide studio when I try to make a postgis connection I get
 the default feature editor screen and errors in my error log
 saying CLNT_8_UNABLE_TO_LOAD_LIBRARY.

 When I make an ogr connection I get the proper editor (with data
 source and readonly connection options) but I get a connection
 failed error when I try and test the connection. The error log
 says CLNT_4_PROVIDERNOTREGISTERED.

 I have tested my connection string with ogrinfo and it works,
 and I have checked that both providers are in my providers.xml
 file.

 I have also tested both connection strings with testconnection in
 the web tier test suite and both give me the
 CLNT_4_PROVIDERNOTREGISTERED error.

 Has anyone successfully managed to use either of these connectors
 with Ubuntu, and how do I begin debugging the problem?
