Consider using the MgInstantSetup bundle instead if you desire side-by-side installation The installer '''does not''' currently support IIS Express as an IIS configuration option. Please observe the updated software requirements if you are using .net and/or IIS configuration: * IIS (all versions) require FastCGI for IIS to be installed. For IIS7 and above, you can install FastCGI by enabling the CGI feature of your IIS installation. See [http://learn.iis.net/page.aspx/246/using-fastcgi-to-host-php-applications-on-iis/#EnableFastCGI this link] for more information. * The supported .net Framework version for the MapGuide .net API is '''4.0'''. You must have this version of the .net Framework installed before proceeding with installation. Java configuration requires Java 6 (1.6.0) or higher. The MgInstantSetup bundles only work with '''IIS7 or higher''' if you choose to use this web server. You must still satisfy the .net and FastCGI software requirements required for this configuration. To assist new MapGuide users and developers, the installer also now bundles the following optional components: * .net/PHP/Java viewer samples * MapGuide Developer's Guide in HTML format with updated content * .net/PHP/Java Developer's Guide Samples All bundled samples require the [http://download.osgeo.org/mapguide/releases/3.0.0/Beta1/Sheboygan.mgp Sheboygan dataset] to be loaded into the MapGuide Server. A restart of Apache and/or IIS may be required for PHP to work. For the InstantSetup bundles, the MgInstantSetup utility requires .net Framework 4.0 to run. This is in addition to whatever existing software requirements imposed by this release of MapGuide Open Source. For Tomcat configuration, the installer currently does not install Tomcat as a service (#953). You will have to do this manually post-installation. Also ensure that you install the JVM of the same bitness as your installation of MapGuide. For example, you will get a {{{java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError}}} if you attempt to run a Tomcat from a 32-bit MapGuide installation on a 64-bit JVM. If you have both 32 and 64-bit JVMs installed, you must ensure that the Tomcat bundled with MapGuide is using the correct one. Tomcat will generally use the one indicated by the {{{JAVA_HOME}}} environment variable, so this may have to be set and/or overridden. up Note that upgrading Apache from 2.2.x to 2.4.x has introduced changes to some configuration directives. If you have any custom httpd directives defined in your current MapGuide installation, please consult the [https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/upgrading.html upgrade notes] for any changes you have to do when migrating/upgrading your Apache-based MapGuide installation to this release. If you have PHP-based MapGuide applications, consult the [http://php.net/manual/en/migration54.php 5.3 to 5.4 migration guide] and [http://php.net/manual/en/migration55.php 5.4 to 5.5 migration guide] for any API and compatibility issues that may be present in your MapGuide application as a result of moving to PHP 5.5 Should you choose to uninstall the Linux build of this release at any time, download and the respective uninstaller script. This ensures that any proper service un-registration is also performed. == Known Issues == * On Ubuntu, bash needs to be the default shell due to bash-isms in the service control scripts (#2497) * Installing msttcorefonts for your specific distro is strongly recommended to avoid the case of "hieroglyphic" labels. You can specify the path of your msttcorefonts installation in serverconfig.ini to have MapGuide load these fonts in on startup. * Using the Linux builds of MapGuide on distributions they were not built for is not supported. If you want to run MapGuide on: * Versions of Ubuntu newer than 12.04 * CentOS 7 or higher * A different Linux distribution Then consider running MapGuide in a [https://www.docker.com/ docker container] that is based on Ubuntu 12.04 or CentOS 6.x. This installation method is not supported and is only mentioned here for informational purposes. * The following FDO providers may or may not not be functional in 64-bit Linux builds of MapGuide * SHP (spatial indexing code not working properly in 64-bit, will cause incorrect spatial queries. Workaround: Use OGR provider) * MySQL (un-tested, please provide feedback) * PostgreSQL (un-tested, please provide feedback) * King.Oracle (un-tested, please provide feedback) * WFS (un-tested, please provide feedback) * WMS (un-tested, please provide feedback) * The following FDO providers have been validated in a 64-bit Linux environment by their respective FDO unit test suites (ie. All tests pass). Feedback on these providers in 64-bit Linux still welcome/appreciated: * SDF * SQLite * GDAL * OGR * Fusion: Bing/VirtualEarth commercial layers may conflict with Google layers if they are both specified in a Flexible Layout. If you have a Bing/VirtualEarth layer as the default, switching to a Google layer in your Fusion application will cause the Google layer to be displaced and vice versa. * #2252: It is not possible to call MgFeatureService::UpdateFeatures() with a NULL MgTransaction in the PHP API * Installer may generate a providers.xml entry for the ArcSDE provider if all providers are enabled in the "Feature Selection" dialog even if the installer does not actually bundle the ArcSDE provider. You can simply remove this entry from providers.xml after installation if this is the case. * CentOS: mgserver may throw double-free errors on service startup or server shutdown. Should not affect server behaviour. * The Performance Profiler on Linux may not work due to insufficient permissions to save the generated report files. To fix this, ensure the directory {{{/usr/local/mapguideopensource-3.0.0/webserverextensions/www/mapadmin/profilingmapxml}}} on linux has sufficient write permissions for the user account that the PHP executable runs under. * For an InstantSetup-based install with an Apache configuration, the Performance Profiler is [http://trac.osgeo.org/mapguide/browser/branches/3.0/MgDev/Web/src/mapadmin/performanceReport_MapViewer.php#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 * Uninstallation can leave "ghost" IIS virtual directories behind, which currently is any virtual directory / application you create inside the mapguide virtual directory that '''was not created by the installer''' These "ghost" directories may 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 {{{appcmd.exe list vdir}}} * 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. * 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.
