[mapguide-users] RE: Launch Sample Application error

I don't know whether I am running apache or not.  All I have done is download the files and follow the steps set out in http://mapguide.osgeo.org/sites/mapguide.osgeo.org/files/GettingStarted.pdf

Nothing more, no other installs.  The problem is just that the last step doesn't launch the map viewer, well, it tries but says it can't find it.  I tried altering the address as you suggested but still no dice.  

Any more clues?

You suggested Apache when you included a link that has the 8008 port. If you aren't using apache remove the 8008 port from your URL. That may be your only issue ;)

Thanks for the reply Dave.

I checked the location you specified and there is a folder in there named mapviewerphp, so I guess that answers the first part of the question, I have the php version installed.  

Does that bring me closer to getting step 5 from the instructions to work and the viewer and map to display?

PS.  Where did I say anything about apache?

Check your www folder in your Web Extensions install. the mapviewerXXX will tell you which API you installed. I'm guessing if you are running apache you probably installed PHP. If you didn't things probably won't work.

Hi guys, long time listener, first time caller.

I'm new to mapguide and I've followed the steps laid out in http://mapguide.osgeo.org/sites/mapguide.osgeo.org/files/GettingStarted.pdf 

Everything seems to go swimmingly, I realised the .mgp was being renamed to .zip and I rename that.  I proceed to step 4 and load the package successfully, great, then when I go to step 5 (go to the link: http://localhost:8008/mapguide/phpviewersample/ajaxtiledviewersample.php) I get a 404 error.   

To try and investigate what I'm doing wrong I browse to Web Studio.  In there I can see the various layers of Sheboygan, they all seem to have loaded correctly.  It just seems as though the viewer isn't working correctly.  What might I be missing for this final step not to work but everything else apparently loading correctly?

Also, I can't remember whether I installed php or asp, where do I look to check?  Secondly, lots of people talk about logging out of the admin agent and restarting the server/service.  How do I go about this?

I'm running XP 64 with IE 7, MapGuide open source 2.0.2 and I am just trying to test this locally.  

Any clues or suggestions of silly things I've missed would be greatly appreciated.  No one else on the forum seems to have quite the same problem I have, with the final step failing.  

Regards,
Andrew Barker
