    106142For 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.

    110146The 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.

    112148== Known Issues ==
    113149
    114  * The Performance Profiler may not work due to insufficient permissions to save the generated report files. To fix this, ensure the directory {{{<Your MapGuide Install>\Web\www\mapadmin\profilingmapxml}}} for windows and {{{/usr/local/mapguideopensource-2.4.0/webserverextensions/www/mapadmin/profilingmapxml}}} on linux has sufficient write permissions for the user account that the PHP executable runs under.
     150 * Due to unavailability of build resources, the Beta 1 installer does not include the ArcSDE FDO provider. You may try registering the FDO 3.7 beta 1 provider in providers.xml after installation, but this has not been tested nor is it supported.
     151 * CentOS: SELinux security settings will prevent MapGuide from loading FDO and other shared libraries. The CentOS install script will fix the security contexts of the so files within these extracted tarballs that it will download.
     152 * CentOS: mgserver may throw double-free errors on service startup or server shutdown. Should not affect server behaviour.
     153 * The Performance Profiler may not work due to insufficient permissions to save the generated report files. To fix this, ensure the directory ~~{{{<Your MapGuide Install>\Web\www\mapadmin\profilingmapxml}}} for windows and~~ {{{/usr/local/mapguideopensource-2.4.0/webserverextensions/www/mapadmin/profilingmapxml}}} on linux has sufficient write permissions for the user account that the PHP executable runs under.
     154 * For an InstantSetup-based install with an Apache configuration, the Performance Profiler is [http://trac.osgeo.org/mapguide/browser/branches/2.4/MgDev/Web/src/mapadmin/performanceReport_MapViewer.php?rev=6771#L43 hard-coded to always use mapviewerjava if it exists for displaying the map viewer] for capturing extents for profiling. If you did not choose a Java configuration you will get the ajaxviewer.jsp source instead of the expected map viewer. To resolve this, delete the mapviewerjava directory
    115155 * ~~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.~~
    116156 * Uninstallation can leave "ghost" IIS virtual directories behind, which currently include:
    … …  
    119159     * ~~mapviewernet~~
    120160     * Any virtual directory / application you create inside the mapguide virtual directory that '''was not created by the installer'''
    121    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

    122162{{{appcmd.exe list vdir}}}
    123163 * ~~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.~~
