The ticket #659 relates to people trying to write an application on one machine that communicates with MapGuide on another machine (on a LAN). You should not follow those directions, unless you are trying to achieve that.

As for the WAN, you just need to have your router (or ISP) redirect request for port 80 (or 8008) to your machine. On most routers, it is called NAT (network address translation), but some call it "Virtual Servers".

Once done, your webserver should be visible from the WAN as well, and thus MapGuide is visible too.

Hello,

Following the suggestion from Andy Morsell, I uninstalled and installed the
MapGuide Web Extensions for MGOS 2.0.2 using the Apache Webserver and PHP.
Success! I can now login to Site Administrator.

Only thing I did different on the install was to use the default localhost
IP address (127.0.0.1). So now I'm trying to find where I change it to my
WAN IP address for the MapGuide Server.

Thanks for the help,

Jeff Jensen

Hello,

I'm unable to connect to the Site Administrator when using a new installed
MapGuide Open Source 2.0.2. I'm getting the "Cannot establish connection."
error message.

I followed the suggestions from Crispin and Jason (see my notes at
http://faculty.unlv.edu/jensen/html/MapGuide/)

Any other ideas?

Thanks for the help,

Jeff Jensen

and reinstall 2.0.2 again. Ed Jobe
