[fusion-users] Tr : Request for DMSG Fusion (MapServer) details

[Paul Spencer]

Hi Maher,

you need to join the fusion users mailing list to be able post (http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/fusion-users 
).  I recommend it :)

Fusion now has its own home separate from MapGuide OS at:

http://trac.osgeo.org/fusion

The version of fusion that you can get from that site (and associated  
SVN) work with MapServer.  There is not a lot documented about working  
with MapServer yet, but it does work well with MapServer and is stable.

We are looking for brave people to get started, ask questions and help  
with documenting it :)

The basic things to do to get it working with MapServer are to

* edit the config.json file and make sure that it has the right settings
* create a <Map> tag in the ApplicationDefinition with  
<Type>MapServer</Type> and put the full path to the mapfile in the  
<Extension><MapFile></MapFile></Extension> block of the <Map>

<Map>
   <Type>MapServer</Type>
   <Extension>
     <MapFile>/path/to/map/file</MapFile>
   </Extension>
</Map>

You will also want to make sure that your PHP has a setting for  
session.save_path in php.ini.

Cheers

Paul
