[mapguide-users] Raster not loading

[Kenneth Skovhede, GEOGRAF A/S]

The GDAL provider (aka OSGeo FDO Provider for Raster) usually reports 
"success",
even when it fails completely.

Try debugging, using these instructions:
http://trac.osgeo.org/fdo/wiki/FdoGdalNotes

(btw. MGOS 2.1 is out, and has stable raster support, 2.0.2 is known to 
be unstable with rasters)
