We are trying to evaluate the s/w but we have some query regarding the support for Linux for web server. Can we host a website on linux which uses Mapsuite.
Linux support
I guess not… but lets the guys at ThinkGeo say something.
You could try using Mono, but then ThinkGeo needs some libraries.
I would love to have that supported also, even with Mono.
Sandeep,
We do not test our product under mono on a regular basis. We did however do a project about a year ago using our Winforms under Mono and it worked well. I am fairly sure the Map Suite core works well but I am not sure about the web edition. Of course we have some third party dependencies that may not work. These are mainly support for GeoTiff, MrSid, and ECW. Most of everything else should work. You may want to try under Mono and see what happens. If this is really important I suggest you contact your salesmen and discuss this as we may be able to do something. If the web edition doesn’t work under mono the core probably will and you can still generate map under mono which may or may not fit your requirements.
