I haven't tried this on Linux yet.  However, I do know that MapGuide 1.0.2 will not work with FDO 3.2.
 
As long as you're building FDO from SVN, you might as well pull MapGuide from trunk as well :)

Subject: [mapguide-users] MySQL FDO and Fedora 4



I am trying to get all things MapGuide Open up and running on a Linux Fedora 4 install.  One of the requirements is to use MySQL.  When doing the install, I am a little baffled about the FDO build requirements so I'm hoping somebody can shed some light.  The MapGuide Open Source "Building and Configuring on Linux" document says that FDO 3.0 must be built on the server before building MapGuide Server and the Web Extensions.

So, this leads me to the FDO project where the current Linux FDO tarball only contains the SDF and SHP providers.  The version of FDO is 3.1.  Since I need the MySQL provider, I find that I need to checkout the source from SVN, but SVN appears to only contain FDO 3.2 version source files.  Also, the FDO build PDF file indicates that there should be tar files for the other providers, but the referenced URL only has the above mentioned 3.1 and 3.0 tars.

Should I build FDO from version 3.2 or not?  Doesn't MGOS 1.0.2 use FDO 3.1 or is that just what comes in the bundled Windows install? Will FDO 3.2 work fine with MGOS if it's manually built?

Any other hints on the steps to take would be greatly appreciated. 

Thanks very much. 

Andy
