I see this is rather buried and sparsely covered in the documentation, but GeoMoose is using WMS calls to MapServer now in 2.6 instead of making mode=map calls.  As such, you need to enable WMS in your map file.

Search for wms_enable_request on the following page for how to enable this in your mapfile(s):
http://mapserver.org/ogc/wms_server.html
