Hidden Information - Installing Adsk MapStudioPreview

[Francisco Javier Rojas Duran]

Hi Everybody:

 

We were having a lot of problems with MapServer Enterprise, after few weeks
we found that TuX Preview 1 was more flexible and complete (because of the
FDO Providers including Oracle) excepting for the AJAX Viewer (NOT INCLUDED
WITH THAT PREVIEW, ONLY DWF) than MapServer Enterprise 0.9.1, and then we
found that MapGuide OpenSource 1.0 RC1 is more reliable than the previous
version 0.9.1 so everyone should migrate from 0.9.1 to 1.0 and the platform
language does not matter for the Server and Web Tier (We Tested on Spanish
OS) , UNLESS YOU RUN MapStudio March Preview because if you are running a
NON-ENGLISH Windows Server and you run MapStudio on the same computer, and
try to use it with MapGuide OS , it fails in almost all the commands or
create procedures.

 

Neither Autodesk or OSGeo know the issue, so BE CAREFUL of using MapStudio
on a NON-ENGLISH Windows Server/Pro (2000/XP/2003).

 

Also the old guide for deploying Map Guide OS Sample Web Apps is the same
for the 1.0 version, so OSGeo must ADVICE that a Guide and more
documentation is needed to be post on the web site.

 

Finally we have the software working fine on Windows 2000 Advanced Server
SP4(English) and Windows 2003 Standard Server SP1 (Spanish) with Adsk Map 3D
2007 Alpha 2.

 

The Next Question is : How MapGuide OS can interact with Google Earth?

 

Best Regards,
