- Updated [download link].

Change Log:

Change Log:
- Added ability to save UI layout by pressing Control and a Number.
- Added logic to scale the UI layout when the window is resized.
- Moved button texture specifics from ui_layout.xml to core.xml.
- Updated config files.
- Updated download link.

Change Log:
- Added new setup connection wizard.
- Added connection dialog.
- Added user dialog.
- Added display dialog.
- Updated server (now running WinXP thru IIS for NW USA connection)
- Updated download link.

Created a functional prototype for the Client Connection Dialog. Each connection listed is a standalone component that makes web requests against the server to measure speed and latency. The controls are autogenerated from settings found in the core.xml file.

Here is a mockup of a setup wizard that will guide users through the user setup process.

If you install your own TagCMA server, these settings will help you maximize the performance you can get out of MySQL.

First invoke the MySQLInstanceConfig.exe application.


Click thru the configuation based wizard.


Select Configure/Reconfigure Instance.


Select Detailed Configuration.


Select Server Machine.


Select Non-Transactional Database only.


Select Online Transaction Processing (OLTP).


Enable TCP/IP Networking across the 3306 port.


Select Standard Character Set (for now).


Enable the MySql Service and add the bin directory to your path.


Change the default root password so nobody can hack your database.


Execute the process to update the configuration.


Finish the wizard.

The process of installing a TagCMA server on a Mandriva 2005 LE is as follows.

1. Start with a fresh install of Mandriva, include default packages for Server, Web Server and Database.

2. Update package sources.
http://easyurpmi.zarb.org/

3. Install MONO.
urpmi mono

4. Install Apache2 development packages.
urpmi apache2-devel

5. Compile mod_mono.
wget http://www.go-mono.com/archive/1.0.8/mod_mono-1.0.8.tar.gz
tar zxvf mod_mono-1.0.8.tar.gz
cd mod_mono-1.0.8
./configure --prefix=/usr --with-preview=yes
make
make install

6. Compile XSP.
wget http://www.go-mono.com/archive/1.0.8/xsp-1.0.8.tar.gz
tar zxvf xsp-1.0.8.tar.gz
cd xsp-1.0.8
./configure --prefix=/usr --with-preview=yes
make
make install

7. Get the latest TagCMA code from CVS.
cd /var/www/mono/
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/tagelflax co tagml/TAGMLWS

8. Configure MONO to find TAGMLWS.
These lines have to be added to /etc/httpd/conf/commonhttpd.conf just after the section that reads "...Note that from this point forward you must specifically allow particular features to be enabled..." :
####################################
LoadModule mono_module modules/mod_mono.so

Alias /TAGMLWS "/var/www/mono/tagml/TAGMLWS"
MonoApplications "/TAGMLWS:/var/www/mono/tagml/TAGMLWS"

<Directory /var/www/mono/tagml/TAGMLWS>
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
SetHandler mono
<IfModule mod_dir.c>
DirectoryIndex ClientManager.aspx
</IfModule>
</Directory>
####################################

9. Compile the server.
cd /var/www/mono/tagml/TAGMLWS/
./CompileWithMono.sh

10. Install MySQL.
urpmi mysql
mv /etc/sysconfig/mysqld /etc/sysconfig/mysqld.old
/etc/init.d/mysqld start
mysqladmin -u root -h localhost password 'new-password'

11. Setup the TagCMA database schema.
cd /var/www/mono/tagml/TAGMLWS/Install
mysql -u root -p
\. database_config.sql
exit

AND THAT'S HOW IT'S DONE.

Upon launching TagCMA, I invision a step by step wizard to help the user select that best connection to which will provide the least lag to boost the user experience.
