There appear to be more than one problem, but 3 items are noted below: 1. Using the following: http://localhost/mapguide/mapagent/mapagent.fcgi?OPERATION=GetMapKml&VERSION=1.0.0&MAPDEFINITION=Library://Samples/Sheboygan/Maps/Sheboygan.MapDefinition&FORMAT=KML The KML opens in Google Earth fine and the various network links appear in the Places legend. But, the network links never refresh. There is a bug in GE 5 where network links do not auto refresh when using onStop viewrefreshmode. Google has acknowledged this bug. To work-around it (for whatever reason this works), the following needs to be in the network link definition: How it normally would be generated through the mapagent: onStop 1 How it needs to be generated to work with GE 5: onInterval 9999 onStop 1 2. Trying to open the network links manually in a browser causes the server to not return anything. The following is an example: http://localhost/mapguide/mapagent/mapagent.fcgi?OPERATION=GetLayerKml&VERSION=1.0.0&LAYERDEFINITION=Library://Samples/Sheboygan/Layers/Islands.LayerDefinition&DRAWORDER=3&FORMAT=KML&SESSION=5b7e65aa-0000-1000-8006-0050569412cb_en_7F0000010AFC0AFB0AFA 3. Using the following: http://localhost/mapguide/mapagent/mapagent.fcgi?OPERATION=GetMapKml&VERSION=1.0.0&MAPDEFINITION=Library://Samples/Sheboygan/Maps/Sheboygan.MapDefinition&FORMAT=KMZ The KMZ is created and Google Earth opens, but never appears in the GE Places legend so the KMZ is most likely malformed. All in all, there appears to be multiple problems with MGOS 2.0.2 and Google Earth 5 KML and KMZ. Some of these problems are GE 5 related, and some are MGOS related.
