[mapguide-users] MapGuide REST plot.pdf?layeredpdf=1 doesn't work for maps with base layer groups

[Berg, James]

Windows Server 2008 64-bit
MapGuide Opensource 2.5.2
MapGuide REST 0.10

MapGuide REST is a very nice thing with many valued features. Here's an error I found while exploiting its functionality:

Creating a layered PDF using MapGuide REST doesn't seem to work for maps that have base layer groups. Here's how to reproduce the error:


1.       Open localhost/mapguide/dotnetviewersample/ajaxtiledviewersample.aspx

2.       Find the SessionId in the query string from the TaskPane.

3.       In another window open localhost/mapguide/rest/session/[SessionId]/Sheboygan.Map/plot.pdf?layeredpdf=1

Page displays an error instead of the PDF.

This error does not occur when using a non-tiled map such as

localhost/mapguide/dotnetviewersample/ajaxviewersample.aspx
