[mapguide-users] more 2.1 problems (GDAL this time)

I thought that that was how you were supposed to do it - but I don't see 
any files. When I press "Show all", my list stays blank. I've tried 
changing the type (right click) - no change. If I make a brand new data 
connection - same thing. No config.xml - nothing listed at all from 
"show all".

I know it's still a beta - it's just feeling more like an alpha right 
now, that's all. It's just a typical problem with upgrade headaches 
every time a new version gets put out - beta or not. I'm running this 
all as a default install on apache. It's running as Local System.
