[mapguide-users] New configuration problems

[Bill Dhimitri]

Hi Eric,

 

Here are some more detailed instructions.  These might help you identify
where it's going wrong.  During steps 2-7 you should not see the word
"Mapserver appear as part of a download or install.

 

1.	Use the Windows "Add or Remove Programs" dialog to remove the
currently installed MapGuide Studio (or MapServer Studio).
2.	Go to this URL:
http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/item?siteID=123112&id=6153839
3.	Scroll to the bottom of the page.  You should see a picture of a
Garmin device, and a paragraph with the heading "The MapGuide Open"
4.	Just above that, there is link that reads: StudioSetup.exe (exe
- 125407 Kb).  Right click on it and download/save it to your file
system.
5.	In the Windows File Explorer, right-click on the StudioSetup.exe
file that you downloaded in step 4 and select Properties.  The "Size:"
should read: 126 MB (132,695,040 bytes)
6.	Now run the StudioSetup.exe that you downloaded in step 4.
7.	Confirm that the install was successful by opening the Windows
"Add or Remove Programs" dialog.  There should be an entry for "Autodesk
MapGuide (r) Studio Preview.  Click on it, and the "Click here for
support information" link will appear.  Click on that link and you will
see a text box indicating the version number.  It should read
1.0.0.16407.

 

Let me know how it goes,

Bill

Bill,

 

Thanks - that's very strange.  Somehow I downloaded Mapserver studio
instead of Mapguide studio.  Perhaps I'm confused - I'm under the
impression that Mapguide Open Source server is really Mapserver.  At any
rate, I was somehow able to download Mapserver Studio (which has the
exact same size footprint and file name as Mapguide Studio).

 

Please advise,

 

-- Eric

	Hi Eric,

	 

	The "version is incompatible" message probably means that you
have an old Studio.  A new one got posted last week to
www.autodesk.com/mapguidestudio with a version number of 1.0.0.16407
(you can use the Help About dialog to confirm the version). If you
download and install the new one, that should fix your problem

	Hi Eric,

	 

	The mgp file itself is just a zip file containing all the map
resources. Sometimes Internet Explorer changes the extensions of files
it recognizes, so it likely renamed it to .zip when it downloaded it.
Just rename it to .mgp.

	 

	As far as the Studio problem, let's wait for someone else (who
knows better) to answer that. But I am puzzled that you say MapServer
Studio... That's what the 0.9 version was called, the current one should
say MapGuide Studio when it starts up.

		All...

		 

		Just downloaded MapGuide & Mapserver Studio.

		 

		While the Admin appears to function fairly properly - I
can't connect from studio, receiving the following message: "The Studio
version is incompatible with the site version."

		 

		Since I downloaded both files today my assumption would
be that all would be synched properly.

		 

		Additionally, though I believe these may be related
based on other posts.. the sheboygan.mgp download file isn't a .mgp but
rather a .zip file doesn't include a  the sheboygan.mgp file.  And I've
tried just putting the .zip file in the C:\Program
Files\MapGuideOpenSource\Server\Packages folder to no avail, the admin
doesn't see a package.

		 

		So.. I'm at somewhat of an impasse because I can't get
the demo apps to run because of no data, and I can't play with the
development tool due to a version conflict.

		 

		Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

		 

		-- Eric
