Fusion build tools
Fusion build tools is a zip file containing the build.xml and associated build tools required to "re-compile" fusionSF.js and fusionSF-compressed.js on a production fusion installation.
Use the Fusion build tools if you have made patches and/or modifications to your fusion installation, and you need to build a new fusionSF.js and/or fusionSF-compressed.js
In order to use the Fusion build tools, you need to have Apache Ant installed.
- fusion-2.6.0-buildtools.zip
- Size: 7,189,837 bytes
- md5: 6d0bfd41c619ad2d22c889780981540b
To use the Fusion build tools, extract the zip file contents into your fusion directory and navigate to this directory in the command prompt and execute the following command:
ant compress
This will re-build fusionSF.js and fusionSF-compressed.js under fusion\lib
Due to the default installation location (under Program Files), you may need to do this under a UAC-elevated command prompt or fix the directory permissions so that normal users can create/modify files.
Windows Compatibility
IMPORTANT: MapGuide Open Source 2.6 and newer is not supported on Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 in either IIS or Apache configurations. MapGuide Open Source 2.5 is the last release to support Windows XP and Windows Server 2003
32-bit | 64-bit | |
Windows Vista | Maybe+ | Maybe+ |
Windows 7 | Yes | Yes |
Windows Server 2008 | Yes+ | Yes+ |
Windows Server 2008 R2 | N/A | Yes |
Windows 8 | Yes1 | Yes1 |
Windows Server 2012 | N/A | Yes1 |
Windows 8.1 | Maybe1 | Maybe1 |
+ Not tested, but similar enough to Windows 7 to theoretically work
- IIS configuration will probably not work. Apache config should work due to its self-contained nature
1 IIS/.Net successfully tested on Windows 8 64-bit and Windows Server 2012. Windows 8 32-bit is similar enough to theoretically work. Apache config untested
Windows RT (ie. Windows 8 on ARM devices) is not a supported platform for installing MapGuide Open Source
