Web Layout not working

[JackOfHearts]

I have installed a MG 2.1 beta on a "clean" machine, IIS configuration with .NET, on Windows XP SP2, IIS 5.1, .NET 2.0. Installation worked perfectly, without any problems. Then I installed a trial version of Mapguide Studio 2010 and tried to make a web with only one shapefile. Everything worked as always until I got to web layout, it throws an error.

also when I want to see that page in browser it also throws me that error. Funny thing is that I can see that shapefile in map preview, but not in web layout.

Then I tried to do the same thing in Maestro 1.0.9 but i get the same error in browser. I have experience with previous versions of MGOS.

Are both mapviewernet and mapviewerajax virtual directories not working?

[JackOfHearts]

I'm not very familiar with IIS, but I compared 2.0 instalation of IIS and there are some differences. First, I thing that mapviewerajax is not working, second, mapviewernet is not created as and application. Both of them have low Application protections compared to MGOS 2.0 installation where these settings are set to high. Then, both of them (mapviewerajax and mapviewernet) have different (compared to MGOS 2.0) Application Mappings in Configuration settings. In HTTP Headers, both of them do not have Custom HTTP headers set to X-Powered-By: ASP.NET. MIME Map does not have file type .json application/json Document tab, has only Default.aspx compared to Default.apsx, index.php, index.html etc.

All comparison is to MGOS 2.0 instalation with IIS and .NET configuration which works without any problem.

I thing this is all of the differences. I hope it helps. I tired to set everything the same but with no success.

Hi,

This "error" is usually because the wrong version of .net is assigned to the virtual directories. In IIS look at the properties of the "mapguide" and "mapviewerajax" virtuals and on the asp.net tab ensure that .net 2.0 is set. Then do an IISreset or reboot for good measure.

The new installer *should* be setting these properly but good to check!

Thank you. :) This partially solved the problem. After I've set all of the mapguide virtuals to ASP.NET 2.0, there was another error "Server application unavailable". This is familiar error to me and was easily solver with executing "aspnet_regiis -i" in windows\Microsoft.net\framework\v2.0.50727 directory.

Thank you again for you help. Back to further testing :)
