We just got mapguide 2010 enterprise and it keeps asking for a login when you try to go to a map page.
Is there any way to get around this ?
I found some hints for older versions but those do not seem to work with 2010 anymore, we need just plain read only anonymous access for the majority of our users.
...and are you accessing your map definition via a Basic Layout or the Flexible Web Layout?
PS: if you haven't done so yet, you should also install the Update 1 and 1b service packs from here > http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/ps/dl/index?siteID=123112&id=2334435&linkID=9242179#section1
I've a way to work-around, but it needs some code development.
1. Write some login page (as user is always anonymous, you can let this page always login with anonymous user by code). The purpose of this page is create a session id.
2. Use the session id as one of the page request parameters. For example:
http://localhost/mapguide2010/fusion/templates/mapguide/slate/index.html?ApplicationDefinition=Library%3a%2f%2fTB_LM%2fDefault.ApplicationDefinition&Session=YourSessionIDHere
You made a page that logs in for you and uses that session code ?
Or did you just get a session code and put that in there, because usually session id's tend to expire ?
Yes, you are using the flexible layout if your url contains 'fusion'. I also have this problem while using flexible layout but was unable to test a basic layout as of yet, so I don't know if that will solve the issue. There must be a way to use the flexible layout without having to write special code to fake the login.
Please post the steps involved in converting a fusion based layout to a basic layout and whether or not the map will have to be re-created from scratch.
You can use MapGuide studio to create basic web layout, using exisitng map definition (that means, you don't have to re-create feature source, layer definition and map definition).
1. In the site explorer, select "New" -> "Web Layout" -> "Basic Layout" in the context menu of site explorer.
2. The most important thing is in "Map resource used in this layout", choose your map definition.
3. You can choose a page for "URL for home task displayed in Task Pane" or set any other option you want.
4. Save it.
You'll find an URL at "Preview in browser using AJAX viewer" (the one above "Toolbar and Menus" category) and that's the URL for the basic web layout.
You can add USERNAME and PASSWORD in the URL request parameter to block the popup of basic web layout authentication.
The basic web layout may not have as much function as Fusion web layout. But its function is enough for navigating a map.
