[mapguide-users] RE: Coords files on 64 bit machine

[Jim O'Leary]

Yes, MapGuide on 64 bit installs to

C:\Program Files (x86)\

The coords files thus install to

C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Autodesk Shared\Gis\CoordSys\11g

This is the correct path setting in the registry key. There are no other
coords files on the machine, so Studio is definitely reading those
dictionary files. It is just not picking up the BC Albers definition when I
replace those coords files.
