[mapguide-users] MapGuide Studio Preview Window

Alain,

 

That solved the problem!  Both of my virtual folders were pointing to
\mapviewerjava instead of \mapviewernet.  Once I changed them it worked
fine.

 

Thanks!

Steven,

 

If the sample works ok for you, then the problem is most likely with the
aliases 'mapviewerajax' and 'mapviewerdwf'

 

In your IIS console:

 

-          Right click on 'mapguide' virtual folder and create a new virtual
folder from the context menu. Name the virtual folder 'mapviewerajax' and
set the physical path to <WebExtensionsDir>\mapviewernet. Give it the right
to execute ASP scripts

-          Right click on the virtual folder 'mapviewerajax' and open the
property dialog. In the 'Documents' tab, make sure that "Enable defaut
document' is checked, remove any possible existing documents and add
'ajaxviewer.aspx' to the list

-          Right click on 'mapguide' virtual folder and create a new virtual
folder from the context menu. Name the virtual folder 'mapviewerdwf' and set
the physical path to <WebExtensionsDir>\mapviewernet. Give it the right to
execute ASP scripts

-          Right click on the virtual folder 'mapviewerdwf' and open the
property dialog. In the 'Documents' tab, make sure that "Enable defaut
document' is checked, remove any possible existing documents and add
'dwfviewer.aspx' to the list

 

 

These virtual folders might already be defined on your machine but not
correctly set up. If that's the case I'd suggest deleting them and
recreating them with the steps above.

 

Restart IIS. You should see the preview working in Studio.

Alain,

 

I am using IIS on Windows XP Pro.

 

Within Studio, I open any of the Samples/Sheboygan/Layouts, click Refresh in
the Web Preview pane and all I see is text.  (Not sure where I'm supposed to
see 'Go').

 

I can, however, view any and all of the samples via
http://localhost/Mapguide/dotnetviewersample/dwfviewersample.aspx or
http://localhost/Mapguide/phpviewersample/dwfviewersample.php. 

 

.Steve

Steven,

 

If you have an existing web layout in your repository, open it with Studio's
web layout editor, and click 'Go' to preview the web layout within a web
browser. If this is working then there is probably just a problem with the
configuration of the aliases "mapviewerajax" and "mapviewerdwf" that Studio
use for the preview window.

 

However If you see the same problem in the web browser as in the preview
window, then your web server is not properly configured to handle pages with
a php extension (or jsp or aspx depending on what you are using), which
causes these pages to be returned as text instead of being executed. Tell us
also if you are using Apache or IIS, and if you are using PHP, JSP or
ASP.NET.

 

Alain

Yes.  It should work.

Is this supposed to be working?  Mine just shows html source, not any of the
resources that are defined.
