RE: [mapguide-users] physical files
I was able to export the package from my production server and import it into my testing server with no problem. Now all of my layers and data are the same. Thank you very much for all of your help. -Mark Pendergraft From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jason Birch Sent: Saturday, November 17, 2007 11:34 AM To: MapGuide Users Mail List Subject: RE: [mapguide-users] physical files Hmm, that's interesting (about the different standalone php.exe).

RE: [mapguide-users] physical files
You might want to look at package management functions in the MapAdmin area. These will allow you to create .mgp files from portions of your repository which can then be loaded into your test site. There is a 2GB limit on package files, so you may need to break it down into smaller chunks to get everything out. This is one of the reasons I like using unmanaged data sources; it allows me to use standard filesystem backups for the data, and an automated export script for the packages. I haven't tried this, but you may also be able to use the RepositoryAdmin scripts to back up your production repository and then restore it to your test site. I believe that these are included in the server install; this is what they look like: http://trac.osgeo.org/mapguide/browser/trunk/MgDev/Server/RepositoryAdmin This would be a good topic for a how-to if anyone is interested in hacking on the MapGuide Trac wiki... Jason From: Mark Pendergraft Subject: [mapguide-users] physical files I have 2 mapguide servers running in my office. One for testing/developing (my computer) and one that hosts the final application. The server hosting the final map has extra layers, and more features then my testing server. I would like to copy the entire repository containing the features over to my testing server in order to update my testing machine so that it is in-sync with the final application server. I know where to find the SDF feature sources, but how do I copy over layer definitions, map definitions, and the web layouts? Are these even physical files? If so, where can they be found? winmail.dat___ mapguide-users mailing list mapguide-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapguide-users
RE: [mapguide-users] physical files
Rather than copying the entire repository, you can also make a package of any folder within the repository. Go into Site Administrator and take a look at the Manage Packages section. Because we have the capability to export from the folder level, I organize all of my projects with a top-level folder which makes it easy to export from development and import into production on a project by project basis.

I didn't have any tiled data in mine. if you look in the Library\DataFiles folder youwill see key codes (look like registry keys) eg. 1fc79998--1000-8000-0019d111a9a6 these are the unique identifiers for your layers, etc. if you open one of these folders up you'll see your loaded SDF file, etc. I hope that gets you in the right starting spot -Ryan On Nov 16, 2007 7:32 PM, Mark Pendergraft [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I have 2 mapguide servers running in my office.
