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 ColdFusion
Application Server from the Autodesk MapGuide Server CD. If your web
server is on the computer where developers are going to work, install Cold-
Fusion Studio there as well. For details about installing ColdFusion, refer to
the ColdFusion documentation.
Configuring Autodesk MapGuide Server under a
Different Account
The Autodesk MapGuide Server service runs under the default System
account. However, if you have data sources on another computer that you
want to serve from Autodesk MapGuide Server, you need to run them under
a user account that has access to that computer. Follow these steps after
installing Autodesk MapGuide Server.
To change the account for the Autodesk MapGuide Server service
1 In the Windows Control Panel, double-click Services.
2 In the Services window, select the Autodesk MapGuide Server service, and
click Startup.
3 In the Log On As area, select This Account, and then specify a user account
and password that has access to the data sources on the remote computer.
4 Click OK, and then close the Services window.
