CentOS 5.4 Compilation Guide

These compilation steps are a work in progress.

Build Environment Setup

1. CentOS 5.4 uses GCC 4.1 as its native compiler so MapGuide 2.2 does compile cleanly on CentOS 5.4. The following rpms are required (list may not be complete):

   yum install gcc gcc-c++ autoconf automake automake17 libtool bison
   yum install libjpeg-devel libpng-devel fontconfig-devel freetype-devel
   yum install libxml2-devel expat-devel curl-devel libxslt-devel openldap-devel
   yum install subversion ant xml-commons-apis
   

2. Download Java SE JDK 6 from Sun and install it. Then export JAVA_HOME from .bash_profile

   JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/latest
   export JAVA_HOME
   

3. Download FD0 3.5.0 CR1 Linux Binary tarball from ​Here, and follow the steps to install FDO to /usr/local/

   cd /usr/local
   mkdir fdo-3.5.0
   cd fdo-3.5.0
   tar -xvvzf fdosdk-rhel5-3.5.0.tar.gz
   

   1. Install the following packages

      yum install python-devel
      yum install mysql mysql-devel
      yum install unixODBC unixODBC-devel
      

Build Process

1. Checkout the source from Subversion

   svn checkout http://svn.osgeo.org/mapguide/trunk/MgDev mgdev
   

2. Build the Oem tree

   cd mgdev
   ./build_oem.sh
   pushd Oem/fusion
   ant prepare
   ant compress
   popd
   pushd Oem/LinuxApt
   ./build_apt.sh
   popd
   

3. Build MapGuide

   aclocal
   libtoolize --force
   automake --add-missing --copy
   autoconf
   ./configure --enable-optimized
   make
   make install
   

You should now have a copy of MapGuide 2.2 built and installed to /usr/local/mapguideopensource.
