[mapguide-users] Linking to external data (Raster and Shape)

[Tom Fukushima]

Hi Robert,

For the Raster Data, the de-serialize problem is due to a "," vs "." as
the decimal point in the OS.  A fix has been submitted for this in the
1.0.x branch codestream.  In the meantime, you may need to install on an
OS language that uses "." as the decimal point; I'm not sure if anyone
else got it to work any other way.

For the SHP data, if you use a Studio load procedure to load the data,
can you see it in the preview in that case?  Are there any error
messages in the server error logs?

Regards,
Tom

Dear List,

I tried to link to external data as descripted in the WhitePaper by
Autodesk (see:
http://images.autodesk.com/adsk/files/linking_to_external_data_autodeskm
apguidewhitepaper.pdf).

Raster Data
In MapGuide Studio I can see the new data source, but if I try to create
a new layer and open the data source I get the error message "Feature
source is invalid,...,Failed to de-serialize the spatial contexts from
configuration". If I try to load the 4 raster images directly in Studio
everything works fine - I can see the images. I tried to change the
coordinate system (german gauss krueger to X-Y), i checked the bounding
box several times - nothing.

Shape Data
In MapGuide Studio I can see the new data source, and I can see the
shapes in the "feature data setup" / "feature class" of the
Layer-definition, but they are not displayed in the layer preview.

Any ideas?

regards, Robert
