Building Mapguide on Ubuntu 6.06 Server

Installing Mapguide Open Source on Ubuntu Server 6.06

This was done with a lot of help from the Autodesk team (thanks!)

Basic Setup

Install a basic Ubuntu Server 6.06 (the rest of this guide assumes no GUI and that you are not running as the root user)

Using apt, install the following:

subversion, gcc, g++, flex, bison, automake 1.9, libjpeg62, libjpeg62-dev, libtool, zlib1g, zlib1g-dev, libxml2-dev, make, build-essential

FDO

wget http://svn.osgeo.org/fdocore/branches/3.2.x/checkoutsvn.sh

edit checkoutsvn.sh with the following:

FDO_SVN_USERNAME=guest

FDO_SVN_PASSWORD=guest

FDO_SVN_SOURCEDIR=branches/3.2.x

mkdir fdosvn
cd fdosvn
/path/to/checkoutsvn.sh 

permanently accept the certificates and then cancel the script (ctrl+c for each checkout)

find .subversion/config (hidden directory probably in your home directory)

edit config with the following (either by commenting out or adding):

in the [miscellany] section:

use-commit-times=yes

enable-auto-props=yes

in the [auto-props] section:

*.* = svn:eol-style=native
*.sh = svn:executable

rm -rf fdosvn/*
rm -rf fdosvn/.svn

checkoutsvn.sh

cd /usr/local
sudo mkdir fdo-3.2.0
sudo mkdir fdo-3.2.2
sudo chown (your user) fdo-3.2.0
sudo chown (your user) fdo-3.2.2

cd ~/fdosvn
source ./setenvironment.sh
nohup ./build_thirdparty.sh >& buildthirdparty.log (if you want to log the build)
nohup ./build_linux.sh >& buildlinux.log

Apache/Php

cd
mkdir mgdev
svn co http://svn.osgeo.org/mapguide/branches/1.2.x/ 

install using apt:

libcurl3, libcurl3-dev, libxslt1.1,libxslt1-dev, expat

sudo mkdir /usr/local/mapguideopensource
sudo chown (your user) /usr/local/mapguideopensource

edit /etc/apt/sources.list to include the multiverse

install using apt:

sun-java5-jdk (accept the license)

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun-1.5.0.06 (or similar)

cd /your/home/directory/mgdev/Oem/LinuxApt

extract all the tar.gz files

./build_apt.sh

Build_oem

Install using apt:

automake1.7 (but don't change symlinks or anything)

cd /your/home/directory/mgdev
./build_oem.sh

If you receive an error relating to CppUnit then do the following:

pushd Oem/CppUnit-1.9.14
rm aclocal.m4
popd

./build_oem.sh

Build Mapguide

Install using apt:

libexpat1, libexpat1-dev, doxygen

sudo chown (your user) /usr/lib/python2.4
aclocal
libtoolize –-force
automake –-add-missing –-copy
autoconf
./configure –-enable-optimized
make
make install

Problems?

Can't find webstudio?

cp -R /your/home/directory/mgdev/Web/Src/webstudio /usr/local/mapguideopensource/webserverextensions/www/webstudio
