     42== Major New Items for Preview Release 2 ==
     43
     44 * New MgInstantSetup zip bundles for flexible installation/configuration. Choose the MgInstantSetup bundle over the regular installer if you want to have side-by-side installations of MapGuide
     45 * Ubuntu install available for this release. Install script now has a basic interactive text installer allowing for FDO provider selection.

    93104Finally, due to coordinate system dictionary paths no longer tied to a global environment variable (RFC 122) a mandatory system reboot after installation is '''no longer required''' for all supported versions of Windows. However, a restart of Apache and/or IIS may be required for PHP to work.
    94105
     106For the InstantSetup bundles, the MgInstantSetup utility requires .net Framework 3.5 to run. This is in addition to whatever existing software requirements imposed by this release of MapGuide Open Source.
     107
    95108== Known Issues ==
    96109
    97  * The installer will not remove the IIS virtual directories correctly if you specified a different virtual directory in IIS. For example, if you install with a virtual directory of "mapguide24" it will still remove the "mapguide" virtual directory on uninstall.
     110 * ~~The installer will not remove the IIS virtual directories correctly if you specified a different virtual directory in IIS. For example, if you install with a virtual directory of "mapguide24" it will still remove the "mapguide" virtual directory on uninstall.~~
    98111 * Uninstallation can leave "ghost" IIS virtual directories behind, which currently include:
    99      * dotnetviewersample
    100      * dotnetsamples
    101      * mapviewernet
     112     * ~~dotnetviewersample~~
     113     * ~~dotnetsamples~~
     114     * ~~mapviewernet~~
    102115     * Any virtual directory / application you create inside the mapguide virtual directory that '''was not created by the installer'''
    103116   These "ghost" directories can impact on future installations. To ensure these "ghost" directories are completely gone after uninstallation, use the appcmd.exe utility to remove these virtual directories. You can find out what virtual directories are still there by running
    104117{{{appcmd.exe list vdir}}}
    105  * IIS7.x: The installer does not properly configure the mapviewernet, dotnetviewersample and dotnetsamples directories as IIS applications if you enable such features in the installer. Workaround is to manually create these applications with IIS manager afterwards.
    106  * #1984: An asp.net security setting prevents selection XML from being set from the .net viewer. The current workaround is to add the following line to web.config for the mapviewernet directory under the {{{<system.web>}}} configuration section:
    107 {{{<httpRuntime requestValidationMode="2.0" />}}}
     118 * ~~IIS7.x: The installer does not properly configure the mapviewernet, dotnetviewersample and dotnetsamples directories as IIS applications if you enable such features in the installer. Workaround is to manually create these applications with IIS manager afterwards.~~
     119 * ~~#1984: An asp.net security setting prevents selection XML from being set from the .net viewer. The current workaround is to add the following line to web.config for the mapviewernet directory under the {{{<system.web>}}} configuration section:~~
     120~~{{{<httpRuntime requestValidationMode="2.0" />}}}~~
    108121 * PHP Viewer and Developer's Guide samples will not work if the PHP viewer feature is not enabled. Likewise for .net and Java. Nothing in the installer will prevent you from making such a choice.
    109122 * For the IIS configuration or Apache configuration with a custom http port, you will have to update the WFS and WMS server name configuration properties via the MapGuide Site Administrator after installation if you intend to use such features. This is currently set to localhost:8008 for both.
    110  * #1985: 32-bit IIS configuration does not work on 64-bit windows. To fix this, set the "Enable 32-bit applications" property to true on the IIS application pool that is created by the installer.
     123 * ~~#1985: 32-bit IIS configuration does not work on 64-bit windows. To fix this, set the "Enable 32-bit applications" property to true on the IIS application pool that is created by the installer.~~
    111124 * We have used a non-standard binary build of Apache/PHP to produce this installer, as a result some PHP extensions and Apache modules may not be available.
    112125 * The exe installer will automatically install the Visual C++ 2008 and Visual C++ 2010 redistributables if required. The Visual C++ 2008 redist installer if it is run, it will leave a whole bunch of temp files in the root of C drive (usually). This is a defect in the VC2008 redist installer.
