Hi Ray,

Thanks! I went through a lot of pain and torment as well (and still am
actually- waiting for a postgis driver I can figure out how to do anything
with). But- I got a lot of help from the mapguide development team at
Autodesk, and eventually got through it. It's cool to be able to help people
in return.

Thanks Jo,
I told Rudy the wrong package, 'build-essential' is what I found I needed. I posted an explanation a minute or two ago. I also updated the wiki at http://wiki.osgeo.org/index.php/Building_Mapguide_on_Ubuntu_7.04_Server with that package.

You don't know how much pain and torment I went through trying to install Mapguide on Ubuntu 6.06, and Fedora Core 4 and 6 systems until I found your wiki page. It was a lifesaver for me. I have been working on this off and on since May for a client. It is finally up and running.

Thanks for your help with this write up, and for helping all of us!

Hi,

I am one of the people that wrote the ubuntu instructions on the wiki,
and I don't mind you making alterations to it! The only thing I would say
is that, having checked through the steps I had to take to do the
installation, I didn't have to have the extra package that you mentioned-
so there is something odd going on...

All the best

Jo

Understood :)
I still struggle with just going ahead and doing stuff, counting on
people telling me if they don't like it.  It's really the only way to get
things done in this kind of anarchaic community though ;)  Actually, it's
the preferred way of doing things, unless you're making radical changes
in structure or functionality.

I thought about it Jason, I just didn't know if I'd be stepping on
anyone's feet by updating it.

Thanks!
