OK...That's good.  Thanks for clarifying.

Sorry, I should have clarified that my rant pertains to flat files only.  Database connections will be direct to their source.

Wow.  So you're saying that if and when a provider for Oracle Spatial comes along, we won't be able to define the connection to the database and have the data come directly from that connection?   It basically dumps the data (that point in time) into a repository that resides in on the MG server?   

 

Can someone from Autodesk comment on this?

This is where using a managed data structure is a detriment, in my opinion.  Many of us will want to update our data through external processes and there is no easy way to just copy files into the repository or point to an existing network location.  I think this is going to become a much bigger problem as people put these systems into production and realize that they have to "load" their data into repositories.  It's also going to be a large problem for keeping data up to date with ongoing system maintenance.  Scheduled process are going to be a necessity to ensure that the data in the repository is in synch with the source data.  And, in the case of large source datasets, the entire dataset will have to be reloaded as there is no incremental update method. 

 

I believe (but have not yet done this) that the Studio API is going to have to be used to load these resources, not the server API.

Ahhh. I see, I misunderstood the use of "Packages" and didn't think too look there.   Thank you. It is working fine now. 

 

I have noticed that imported SDFs are processed (into SDF v3, I believe). Is it currently possible to import SDF data sources into the repository without using Studio at all, just using the server API? Is it possible to create your own Packages using the server API?  I would be interested in doing this for our migration tools.

It looks like it's too big.  You'll probably have to "Package" the data and upload it to the server manually, then bring it in via the site Admin web app.

I am trying to load a 225 MB SDF file using MapGuide studio. I have tried any number of different options and they all seem to fail. The process crunches for a while, and then says "Communicating with server" and the progress bars fills to 100% .  Eventually, an error dialog is popped that says "Unable to complete request to site. Connection lost". 

The apache logs showed the following. None of the other logs reported anything of interest that I could see. 

[Wed Mar 22 13:33:54 2006] [warn] FastCGI: (dynamic) server "C:/Program Files/MapGuideOpenSource/WebServerExtensions/www/mapagent/MapAgent.exe" restarted (pid 5284)

Anyone have any ideas about what is going on?
