Subject: MapPoint (aka Caffeinate Me!) Demo instructions
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
OK here<72>s a reprise of the demo instructions to make sure they<65>re up-to-date:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Build steps (things that are not built by a normal <20>msb Distro\BVT.proj<6F> at the root)
|
|||
|
|
- Build Applications\Network
|
|||
|
|
- Build Applications\WebApps
|
|||
|
|
- Build Applications\Cassini [after building Applications\Webapps]
|
|||
|
|
- Build Applications\MapPointProxy
|
|||
|
|
- Build Applications\SeattleTrafficProxy
|
|||
|
|
- Don<6F>t forget msb the distro again to recreate the ISO
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Singularity machine setup:
|
|||
|
|
- Be connected to the Internet.
|
|||
|
|
- Mount the ISO image in the VPC cd-rom drive.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Singularity runtime steps, with direct Internet access:
|
|||
|
|
(type at the shell as shown)
|
|||
|
|
- netstack &
|
|||
|
|
- ipconfig /dev/nic0 dhcp start
|
|||
|
|
[You should see a success message giving Singularity<74>s IP address]
|
|||
|
|
- mappoint &
|
|||
|
|
- seattletraffic &
|
|||
|
|
- cassini /app:MapDemoWebApp
|
|||
|
|
[You should see some startup spew from Cassini]
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Singularity runtime step, with http proxy:
|
|||
|
|
- netstack &
|
|||
|
|
- ipconfig /dev/nic0 dhcp start
|
|||
|
|
[You should see a success message giving Singularity<74>s IP address]
|
|||
|
|
- mappoint 157.54.58.20 &
|
|||
|
|
[You should replace with address of http proxy, if not on corpnet]
|
|||
|
|
[If the demo stalls after displaying "served /MapControl.js", it means
|
|||
|
|
the mappoint proxy can't reach mappoint servers (possibly because you
|
|||
|
|
have have the wrong http proxy.]
|
|||
|
|
- seattletraffic &
|
|||
|
|
- cassini /app:MapDemoWebApp [You should see some startup spew from Cassini]
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Client-side steps:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- Open IE
|
|||
|
|
- Make sure IE is configured correctly to reach the Internet;
|
|||
|
|
the VE demos rely on IE being able to fetch image segments from the
|
|||
|
|
Internet.
|
|||
|
|
- Make sure IE is configured correctly to retrieve local content directly
|
|||
|
|
from the Singularity box.
|
|||
|
|
- Go to http://SingularitysIPAddressHere/ve.aspx for the Virtual Earth demo.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Other notes:
|
|||
|
|
- On some laptops with wireless, it work to boot with PXE assigned to the
|
|||
|
|
wireless interface. This may have to do with MAC address spoofing being
|
|||
|
|
unsupported over wireless. Use the wired connection instead.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Disclaimers:
|
|||
|
|
- Responses from the MapPoint staging servers are sometimes up to 15 seconds
|
|||
|
|
or so in arriving. Obviously, this is unrelated to Singularity performance.
|
|||
|
|
This manifests as a very noticeable delay in rendering the coffee-demo maps.
|
|||
|
|
- I<>ve seen the demos fall over in GC stack walks and in the memory allocator,
|
|||
|
|
suggesting we still have heap-corruption issues. For best results, bring up
|
|||
|
|
the Singularity machine fresh and present the demo right away to minimize
|
|||
|
|
heap pressure.
|
|||
|
|
- A good strategy is to start the VPC, then pause it (from the menu or by
|
|||
|
|
typing right-alt-P), then resume it as you're ready to show the demo (from
|
|||
|
|
the menu or by typing right-alt-P).
