Wiki-Ddnuell: Building MGOS on Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn Server

Below are instructions that will aid a user with installing Mapguide Open Source v1.1 on Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty Fawn) Server. The assistance of Jo Cook was greatly appreciated. I tried installing it on the desktop version of Ubuntu however I was unsuccessful.

'''BASIC SETUP'''

Install a basic Ubuntu Server 7.04 (Feisty Fawn) (the rest of this guide assumes that you are not running as the root user)

The default directory will be /home/administrator. If this is not the case, change your path to /home/administrator

Install the following in Terminal:

''sudo apt-get install subversion gcc g++ bison flex automake 1.9 libjpeg62-dev libtool zlib1g zlib1g-dev libxml2-dev make libxalan110 libxalan110-dev''

'''FDO INSTALL'''

In terminal type the following:

''wget http://svn.osgeo.org/fdocore/branches/3.2.x/checkoutsvn.sh''

Using 'nano', edit checkoutsvn.sh with the following:

''nano checkoutsvn.sh''

FDO_SVN_USERNAME=guest
FDO_SVN_PASSWORD=guest
FDO_SVN_SOURCEDIR=branches/3.2.x

Save your edits and exit checkoutsvn.sh

In terminal type the following:

''mkdir fdosvn
cd fdosvn
bash /home/administrator/checkoutsvn.sh''

Permanently accept the certificate and cancel checkouts with ctrl c

In terminal type the following:

''cd /home/administrator/.subversion/config''

''nano config''

Edit config with the following:

(in the Miscellany section)
Use-commit-times=yes
Enable-auto-props=yes

(in the Auto-Props section)
*.*=svn:eol-style=native
*.sh=svn:executable

Save and close the config file.

In Terminal (from /home/administrator):

''Rm -rf fdosvn/*
rm –rf fdosvn/.svn
cd /home/administrator/fdosvn
bash /home/administrator/checkoutsvn.sh''

''cd /usr/local
sudo mkdir fdo-3.2.0
sudo mkdir fdo-3.2.2
sudo chown administrator fdo-3.2.0
sudo chown administrator fdo-3.2.2''

''cd /home/administrator/fdosvn
source ./setenvironment.sh''

To avoid the bad fd number errors completely, type the following in the terminal:

''sudo dpkg-reconfigure dash''

and choose No at the prompt

In terminal, type the following:

''nohup ./build_thirdparty.sh
nohup ./build_linux.sh''

'''APACHE / PHP INSTALL'''

In Terminal type the following:

''cd ..'' (you should now be in /home/administrator)
''mkdir mgdev
cd mgdev
svn co http://svn.osgeo.org/mapguide/branches/1.2.x''

In Terminal, install the following:

''sudo apt-get install libcurl3 libcurl3-dev libxslt1.1 libxslt1-dev expat''

In Terminal:

''mkdir /usr/local/mapguideopensource
sudo chown administrator /usr/local/mapguideopensource'' (replace administrator with your user if necessary)

Edit the following file /etc/apt/sources.list to include the multiverse

''nano sources.list''

In Terminal, install the following:

''sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jdk'' (accept the license)

In Terminal type the following:

(be sure to change the version of java to the one you download (i.e., 1.5.0.11, 1.5.0.12, etc.))

''export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun-1.5.0.11
cd /home/administrator/MgDev/1.2.x/MgDev/Oem/LinuxApt
find . –name “*.gz” –exec tar zxf {} “;”
./build_apt.sh''

'''BUILD OEM'''

In Terminal, install the following:

''sudo apt-get install automake1.7 libasound2-Dev''

In Terminal:

''cd /home/administrator/MgDev/1.2.x/MgDev
pushd Oem/CppUnit-1.9.14
rm aclocal.m4
popd
./build_oem.sh''

'''BUILD MAPGUIDE'''

In Terminal, install the following:

''sudo apt-get install libexpat1 libexpat1-dev doxygen''

In Terminal:

''sudo chown administrator /usr/lib/python2.4
sudo chown administrator /usr/lib/python2.5
aclocal
libtoolize --force
automake --add-missing --copy
autoconf
./configure - -without-python
make
make install''

To activate webstudio, you have to copy the files to the webserverextension folder as follows:

''cp -R /home/administrator/mgdev/1.2.x/MgDev/Web/src/webstudio “SPACE” /usr/local/mapguideopensource/webserverextensions/www/webstudio''

The above command should be all one line, with a 'space' between webstudio and /usr

''Reboot the server''

To start Mapguide on the server:

''cd /usr/local/mapguideopensource/webtierextensions/apache2/bin
./httpd
cd /usr/local/mapguideopensource/server/bin
./mgserver.sh''

Enjoy!
