| | 3 | Typically the OSGeo4W tree is installed in C:\OSGeo4W but it is permitted to be located anywhere on the system. All paths below are relative to the user selected root directory. |
| | 4 | |
| | 5 | * /apache: the Apache web server |
| | 6 | * /apache/htdocs: The web document directory. Web applications should only include a .pkg file in this directory, see the "Web Application Package Guidelines" section below for more information. |
| | 7 | * /apps: Directory for applications that need their own directory tree, and don't fit conveniently into /bin, /lib, etc. Each app appearing here should have a subdirectory with a name closely related to the name of the package. |
| | 8 | * /bin: most .exe and .dll files intended to be in the user path. The apache alias '/cgi-bin/' also points to this /bin directory. |
| | 9 | * /etc/ini: .bat files to be called from OSGEO4W_ROOT/osgeo4w.bat - usually these contain SET statements for required environment variables. |
| | 10 | * /etc/postinstall: per package post-install scripts |
| | 11 | * /etc/setup: used by cygwin setup to keep track of installed packages. |
| | 12 | * /http.d: apache configuration files, one per package. See the "Web Application Package Guidelines" section below for more information. |
| | 13 | * /include: include files required for building additional packages and executables. |
| | 14 | * /lib: static and stub libraries required for building additional packages and executables. |
| | 15 | * /share: static support data files. |
| | 16 | * /src: When available source packages should unpack here with a directory name matching the package name. |
| | 17 | * /tmp - directory to store temporary files (non-web-accessible) |
| | 18 | * /tmp/ms_tmp/ directory to store temporary web-accessible files |
| | 19 | * /var: currently used by Cygwin setup.exe |
