MAP VIEWER INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION

·         Hi All,

     Make sure like you have weblogic server installed as a pre-requisite.

• Download the map viewer software from 
•                http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/mapviewer/overview/index.html
• Now find the documentation for configuring and installing the map viewer in the below site.
•                http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/web.1111/e10145/toc.html

·         Need to follow some steps to UNPACK this mapviewer11ps3_ear.zip which will find in OTN.

·         Now UNZIP the ZIP file which will produce you   mapviewer11ps3_ear   file.

·         Create a directory named mapviewer.

·         Copy mapviewer.ear into mapviewer.

·         If mapviewer is not already your current directory, go there.

·         Rename mapviewer.ear to mapviewer1.ear.

·         Create a subdirectory named mapviewer.ear.

·         Unpack mapviewer1.ear into mapviewer.ear (sub-directory which you have created at step 8.command to UNPACK mapviewer1.ear ==== jar –xvf  mapviewer1.ear

·         Go to mapviewer.ear.

·         Rename web.war to web1.war.

·         Create a subdirectory named web.war.

·         Unzip web1.war into web.war . jar –xvf web.war

·         Modify the Mapviewer configuration file

• (/ul/mapviewer/mapviewer.ear/web.war/WEB-INF/conf/mapviewer Config.xml) as   
• needed, such as to change its logging level or to add permanent
• data source definitions. You can also modify this configuration file at any time   
• later.(This you can find I mean the datasource which you will define you can find in 
• Mvdemo.zip file.).

·            Now you need to deploy the .ear file on the managed server. How to deploy on the   

o   managed server ? GoTO Deployments tab

    

o   Select the path where your war files are there. In my case I gave till web.war directory.

o   And press NEXT. You will be asked where to deploy it that is on managed server/admin server.

o   Now after deployment go to the managed server on which you deployed it and goto deployments and Goto control there you can see your deployment. Now you can start and stop the deployment.

o   The URL for map viewer will be …… http://localhost:10521/mapviewer.

o   After going to the mapviewer console you will find the a demo’s tab and when you click on demo’s tab .

o  

o   Click on OMaps it will take you to the below 

o  

o   The data source name you will create.  And click on proceed you will be re-directed to the below map.

o   If you don’t configure properly you will never get the map instead an error will come.

o   MAPVIEWER 05501 Map Tile Layer Not Found MVDEMO.DEMO_MAP [ID 1308602.1]

o   The mentioned doc will redirect you to the some set-up steps. Please do it and you will be able to configure and avoid getting that error.
