[mapguide-users] gettile method problems

[Kenneth Skovhede, GEOGRAF A/S]

I can't tell you exactly what goes wrong, but work for a tile generator 
has been done elsewhere.

The FMTilingEngine prepares tiles, and automatically restarts the 
MapGuide service when it encounters the problem:

Zac has developed a browser based tile seeder:

I am building a tile seeder for use with Maestro (not complete, and not 
released, LGPL):
http://svn.osgeo.org/mapguide/trunk/Tools/Maestro/MgCooker/

Perhaps the FMTilingEngine will solve your troubles.
If not, you can consider building on one of the other solutions.
