[mapguide-users] trouble connecting mapguide maestro postgis

Tue Sep 22 02:48:40 EDT 2009

I wrote an email for the fdo mailinglist with contains the information
on this problem in an easy to read way (according to me). Maybe a
summary is useful for this list as well, so here it is:

Hi list,

Somebody from the mapguide lijst told me about this list so I just
subscribed. I 'm new to this game and an newbie, but learned a lot the
last couple of months.

I finally managed to build the following setup:

Winxp
Mapguide 2.1
Mapguide Maestro
Postgresql 8.4
Postgis 1.4

I've filled the database (postgresql) with data from open street map
with osm2pgsql. I can connect from Udig to postgis and from Quantum Gis
(1.3 !!! 1.0 included with osgeo4w is not working). So my postgis setups
works.

In mapguide maestro I go through the following steps:
Create a new resource>data connection
OSGEO FDO Provider for Postgis
Database: osm  (is visible in Udig)
server: I tried localhost http://localhost/ <http://localhost/>
127.0.0.1 http:// 127.0.0.1/ <http://127.0.0.1/> 
Port: 5432
Tried all three credentials but think it must be Specified Credentials
with user postgres and my secret password ;)
Press test connection and then the following error appears:
De externe server heeft een fout geretourneerd: (559) MgFdoException.:
An exception occurred in FDO component. Unable to load the FDO Provider:
Kan opgegeven module niet vinden. (some of this is Dutch... for cannot
find the module)

Somebody told me to test the fdo with depends.exe. This way we found out
that libpq.dll is missing. After installing " a version of libpq.dll" I
was able to run the the test connection. It returned no errors and I
save the connection. After this I need a layer to connect to the data.
Unfortunately I ge the following error:

De externe server heeft een fout geretourneerd: (559) MgFdoException.:
(dutch for the external server returned an error)
An exception occurred in FDO component.
Unable to load the FDO Provider: (null)

The errorlog tells me:

<2009-09-18T10:40:23>                3508
127.0.0.1             Administrator
Error: An exception occurred in FDO component.
Unable to load the FDO Provider: (null)
StackTrace:

c:\osgeo\mapguide_21\mgdev\server\src\common\manager\FdoConnectionManage
r.cpp

It looks like the problem lies within the libpq.dll file. Anybody a
thought on how to solve this problem...

Thanks in advance, Remco  (The Netherlands)

Jason, did not know of such list. I subscribed and off course will share
when something comes out. I 'm pretty sure it is a Mapguide FDO problem.
After I've update Quantum Gis to v 1.3 (not included within the ever so
useful osgeo4w) I'm able to connect to postgis from Quantum Gis as well
besides Udig.

If somebody here knows a solution please let me know. Do others
experience the same trouble?

Met vriendelijke groet,

Remco Houtkamp

I haven't played with the PostGIS provider for a long time, but it would
be key to ensure that you are using the same version of libpq (and the
other postgresql client libraries) as the provider was compiled with.
I'm not entirely sure what version that is, but someone on the fdo-users
mailing list should be able to help.

Been away for the weekend, so I couldn't continue. This morning I made a
newe setup.
Winxp
Mapguide 2.1
Mapguide Maestro
Postgresql 8.4
Postgis 1.4
Same trouble as before with missing libpq.ddl, so I copied this file
from the postgresql tot the mapguide FDO folde. Depend.exe showed me
that there were some other files missing in the FDO folder so I copied
them as wel. After this maestro returen no errors after adding a new
connection>postgis>test connection. So I'm as far as I got before.

When I add a layer and try to connect it, I get an error. The error log
shows me:
<2009-09-21T05:20:54>   2200            127.0.0.1       Administrator
 Error: Cannot establish connection.

maybe adding the bin dir for your postgres client to your path,
rather than adding just the dll to fdo?
