Description

BTW, I'm reporting this issue under General component because there is no one for documentation related issues (see Ticket #15).

In the manual about Installing and Configuring on Windows, there are incorrect URLs or components referred in these URLs are not installed properly.

On page 34, Testing the Web Server Extensions, all URLs refer to mapviewerajax like in the following paragraph: 

You can check that the Web Extensions are correctly set up. If your application
development language is PHP, go to this URL in a web browser:
http://localhost/mapguide/mapviewerajax/ajaxviewer.php?WEBLAYOUT=Library://ATest.WebLayout

Unfortunately, there is no module called mapviewerajax after MapGuide 1.1.0 is installed. Here is what I have under http://localhost:8008/mapguide/ location:

Hmmm. Don't know why all the properties changed. Changing them back...

I understand it's a virtual directory, it's clear.

About more URLs, there are 3 urls and all of them can be found on the page 34. All these URLs refer to the directory mapviewerajax, that's why I called them as incorrect.
