Installing a Report Engine

If you will include reports in your maps, you need to install a reporting
engine, such as ColdFusion or Active Server Pages. You can install ColdFu-
sion Application Server from the Autodesk MapGuide CD. If your Web server
is on the computer where developers are going to work, install ColdFusion
Studio there as well. For details about installing ColdFusion, refer to the
ColdFusion documentation.
