MapGuide Configuration

All Operating Systems and Web Servers

For those who did not install MapGuide Open Source in the default location (i.e., C:\Program Files) you must perform the following configuration edits to Fusion.

1. If Fusion is not installed inside the WebServerExtensions/www directory, you must configure your web server to provide web access to Fusion. Doing this is dependent on the actual web server you have installed. You need to set up an alias (Apache) or virtual directory (IIS) to the 'fusion' directory and configure it to allow execution of PHP scripts.

Fusion will require the JSON MimeType in order to work properly for IIS:

• select HTTP Headers under the properties of your Fusion directory in IIS Snap-In
