CentOS 5.4 Compilation Guide

These compilation steps are a work in progress.

Build Environment Setup

CentOS 5.4 uses GCC 4.1 as its native compiler so MapGuide 2.2 does compile cleanly on CentOS 5.4. The following rpms are required (list may not be complete):

yum install gcc gcc-c++ autoconf automake automake17 libtool bison
yum install libjpeg-devel libpng-devel fontconfig-devel freetype-devel
yum install libxml2-devel expat-devel curl-devel libxslt-devel openldap-devel
yum install subversion ant xml-commons-apis

Download FD0 3.5.0 from  Here, and install it to /usr/local/

If you are also performing an FDO 3.5 build on the same machine, the following packages may also needed:

yum install python-devel
yum install mysql mysql-devel
yum install unixODBC unixODBC-devel

Download Java SE JDK 6 from Sun and install it. Then export JAVA_HOME from .bash_profile

JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/latest
export JAVA_HOME

Build Process

1. Checkout the source from Subversion

svn checkout http://svn.osgeo.org/mapguide/trunk/MgDev mgdev

2. Build the Oem tree

cd mgdev
./build_oem.sh
pushd Oem/fusion
ant prepare
ant compress
popd
pushd Oem/LinuxApt
./build_apt.sh
popd

3. Build MapGuide

aclocal
libtoolize --force
automake --add-missing --copy
autoconf
./configure --enable-optimized
make
make install

You should now have a copy of MapGuide 2.2 built and installed to /usr/local/mapguideopensource.
