[mapguide-users] MapGuide 2.4 on Azure Windows Server 2012 .NET 4.5

[Crispin_at_Linknode]

Dave,

Your best bet is to have a, say Windows 7 / IIS, set-up that was configured
by the installer as a reference.  
The MapGuide documentation used to have a section for manual config but it
has not been updated for a while so while the theory is there the exact
steps will not be.  You also need to have a knowledge of IIS configuration
but it's something along the lines of the list below.  If anyone could
correct any terminology or enhance the list please feel welcome!

 -1) Ensure that .NET, IIS and the management console features are all
installed on your VM.  For Azure services you also need to add an HTTP
endpoint.  As these are not MapGuide config specific I'm not going into
those generic details for running an IIS server on Azure here.

 0) Install MapGuide 2.4 with the .NET following the install wizard and
selecting manual configuration.

 1) Create a new "mapguide" application pointing to
[INSTALL_DIR]\MapGuide\Web\www
 2) I would recommend creating a dedicated application pool for this
 3) Within the "mapguide" application also create applications from the
"mapagent" and "mapviewernet" folders
 4) If required by your solution create a "mapviewerajax" application
pointing in parallel to the "mapviewernet" folder
 5) Within the "mapagent" application add a hander mapping for
"mapagent.fcgi" as an IsapiModule pointing to
[INSTALL_DIR]\MapGuide\Web\www\mapagent\isapi_MapAgent.dll
 6) If you need PHP \mapadmin access add a handler mapping for "*.php" as a
FastCgiModule pointing to [INSTALL_DIR]\MapGuide\Web\Php\php-cgi.exe

Test with http:\\localhost\mapguide\mapagent\index.html - goto "other" and
"create session"

If I missed anything please post back!

 Crispin
