[mapguide-users] MapGuide Open Source Instalation issues

[jamesdudden]

Hi

My setup is slightly different to yours (I am running XP with MGOS 1.1, PHP
and IIS 5.1) but i encountered the same problem. 

You have to make sure the Mapguide Server is running by going to the
services panel, (under Control Panel/Performance and
Maintenance/Administrative Tools/Services) then under mapguide if the
services isn't started, start it. If it is try re-starting it. 

Hope this helps

Regards

James Dudden
