Only one MapGuide installation (via the Windows installer) can exist on any given machine. Use the InstantSetup bundle if side-by-side installs are required. Be sure to back up any data and applications before carrying out the new installation. Before upgrading, it is recommended that you take a backup of your existing repository (whether that is through creating MGP packages with the MapGuide Site Administrator or using the provided repository backup tools/scripts) == Extra Files == Due to size constraints, the binary packages for this release of MapGuide omit the following CS-Map data files: * USA: * NSRS 2007/2011 datum shift files * 1996/1999/2003 Geoid height data files * Australia: * GDA 2020 datum shift files These extra files are available for download as a separate 7-zip archive: * [http://download.osgeo.org/mapguide/releases/4.0.0/Preview1/Dictionaries_Extra.7z Dictionaries_Extra.7z] * Size: 230,627,172 bytes * SHA-1: 798b189f88a2d50c71f1d01cfdcdeac9939ccb11 To install these files, extract the contents into your `Dictionaries` folder of your CS-Map installation. On Windows, this would normally be: * `C:\Program Files\OSGeo\MapGuide\CS-Map\Dictionaries` Restart your MapGuide Server after extracting the files. Unless you work with data in one or more coordinate systems that involves one of the above datums, **you do not need these files**. == Windows Compatibility == ||OS||Status|| ||Windows 11||Yes|| ||Windows 10||Yes|| ||Windows Vista||Maybe+|| ||Windows 7||Yes|| ||Windows Server 2008||Yes+|| ||Windows Server 2008 R2||Yes|| ||Windows 8||Yes1|| ||Windows Server 2012||Yes1|| ||Windows Server 2016||Yes|| ||Windows 8.1||Maybe1|| Please [wiki:SubmitTicket report any issues you find].
