This is because the physical directory of MapGuide's www root is actually:
C:\Program Files\OSGeo\MapGuide\Web\www
Any directory under here is available under http://localhost:8008/mapguide

Hi, can someone give me some guidance with a SQL connection please?
I am using 2.4 RC1 MG and 5.03b Maestro, SQL Express 2008 r2, Win 7 x86.
Database details
Lap-01\SQLEXPRESS db SPATIAL_01 (The Service name under Computer Management
- Services is 'MapGuideServer2.4')
user: Administrator
pwd:
I think for SQL server, it wants your server name: SPATIAL_01
and then your user account that has access to read/etc to your SQL DB
it appears you are trying to pass your MapGuide Administrator account to
your SQL DB engine.
Two separate systems.

Service: The SQL Server instance name (Lap-01\SQLEXPRESS)
DataStore: The name of the SQL Server database
Username: The SQL Server username
Password: The SQL Server password
If username/password both blank, the SQL Server FDO provider will default to
Windows Authentication using the account the
Awesome thanks team.
The bit I was stuck on was I didn't understand,
If username/password both blank, the SQL Server FDO provider will default
to
Windows Authentication using the account the MapGuide Server process is
running under

In SQL Server, there's 2 ways to authenticate when connecting
1. Using SQL Server logins
2. Using Windows user accounts
Connecting without specifying a username/password in the UI will instruct
the SQL Server FDO provider to use Windows Authentication using the
username/password of the windows
Excellent thanks Jackie.
Last question for today and I realise a little off topic but, I have a
'Hello.htm' file in
C:\Program Files\OSGeo\MapGuide\Server\Repositories\Site\Test_07\
I haven't managed to get it to display when I paste the string into the
Initial task Pane URL box for my Layout.
