[mapguide-users] MySQL FDO and Fedora 4

[Tom Fukushima]

Hi Andy,
 
There is no source provided for the 3.1 MySQL provider.  It is part of
the 3.2 source (as you have noticed). If you want to build from the
latest source, I put some step by step instructions for building the
latest MapGuide source on Fedora Core 4 at
http://wiki.osgeo.org/index.php/Building_MapGuide_on_Fedora_Core_4
<http://wiki.osgeo.org/index.php/Building_MapGuide_on_Fedora_Core_4> . I
went through this process about a month ago, so I think the steps should
be good, but I probably missed something. Of course, feel free to
correct, update, reformat, etc. any information on that page.
 
Tom

Subject: [mapguide-users] MySQL FDO and Fedora 4



I am trying to get all things MapGuide Open up and running on a Linux
Fedora 4 install.  One of the requirements is to use MySQL.  When doing
the install, I am a little baffled about the FDO build requirements so
I'm hoping somebody can shed some light.  The MapGuide Open Source
"Building and Configuring on Linux" document says that FDO 3.0 must be
built on the server before building MapGuide Server and the Web
Extensions.

So, this leads me to the FDO project where the current Linux FDO tarball
only contains the SDF and SHP providers.  The version of FDO is 3.1.
Since I need the MySQL provider, I find that I need to checkout the
source from SVN, but SVN appears to only contain FDO 3.2 version source
files.  Also, the FDO build PDF file indicates that there should be tar
files for the other providers, but the referenced URL only has the above
mentioned 3.1 and 3.0 tars.

Should I build FDO from version 3.2 or not?  Doesn't MGOS 1.0.2 use FDO
3.1 or is that just what comes in the bundled Windows install? Will FDO
3.2 work fine with MGOS if it's manually built?

Any other hints on the steps to take would be greatly appreciated. 

Thanks very much. 

Andy
