[mapguide-users] MGOS2.0.2 bundled installation won'tsupportphpon IIS6

[Andy Morsell]

If you're using the Sheboygan sample application, the username and password
(Anonymous in this case) are hard-coded and used to establish the session
via the API.  If you try to open the Sheboygan web layout directly in a
browser, you will be prompted for username.

Its getting a little clearer. e.g. you could have one folder on the hd
managed by IIS and another folder managed by Apache, correct?
 
Now that you mentioned authentication, I plan to do that, but can't find any
documentation on mg's groups and users. I read some blurb somewhere that
everyone is requred to log in but I haven't experienced that requirement
using Sheboygan. I should start another thread on that when I get to that
point.
 
I'll definitely try to post my finding on trac, if I can stay on track.  ;-)

Apache has its own strengths, and if you are not using IIS features
(integrated authentication, .Net, etc) in MapGuide,
I can see why you would want to use Apache. 
If you have a .Net application on the same server, you may want IIS too.

The install documents assume that you choose Apache and PHP.
Anythin else means you're on your own.

If you get a list of changes, please do post them as a ticket in Trac.

Thanks Kenneth,
I didn't realise you could install Apache and IIS. What would be the reason
for doing so? I guess, then, that when the install guide was written, it was
with Apache in mind (i.e. specifying 8008)? I found other discrepancies and
things that need updating in the install guide. I was thinking of making
some corrections and submitting it.

If you install Apache, it will use port 8008, because you may have other
stuff (IIS?) using port 80.

Whenever you do something with the Site Admin, it communicates with the
MapGuide service over a port on the loopback interface.
This port is NOT 8008, and should not be either.

Whenever your application communicates with the MapGuide service, it uses
another port on the loopback interface.
This port is NOT 8008, and should not be either.

(It may redirect to another machine, but usually it is the same machine, and
thus a loopback).

Are the port numbers the same in the web config file and the server config
file? 
Yes, there are 3 ports config'd and they were the same in both files. They
weren't 8008 though. I didn't get prompted to specify them during install
like I did with 2.0.1. 
 
Speaking of ports, the doc's mention localhost:8008. If I use that, it can't
find login.php. If I just use localhost, it can. Could someone explain why?
