<div>I have solved the problem, now I can see my point overlay on the GeoMOOSE map. The reason it showed a pink screen was a wrong path disclosure in mapbook.xml.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thanks a lot for your help, you gave me really helpful advice!</div>

<div>The overlay file shows a pink screen. I am sure, there is still a mistake with the projection!?</div>
<div>mapbook.xml and the map file are in appendix.</div>

<div class="gmail_extra">Pink screen is not likely to be a projection problem - most likely it would be a broken path or a map file error. A very common map file error at this stage would be missing or broken font file path, or missing or broken symbol file path e.g. something like this:<br/>
<br/>
FONTSET "../../fonts/fontset.list"<br/>
SYMBOLSET "../../symbols/symbol.sym"<br/>

<div class="gmail_extra">You are referencing geomoose globals, so you should confirm that the items are there and that paths are good.</div>

To confirm, your screenshot showed you have firebug installed - open fire bug, and then watch the Net traffic as you try to load the overlay file. You will see the calls going to the server, and if you follow the URL directly (open in a new firefox tab) you can see if Mapserver is reporting any specific error. Errors will be returned either to the browser screen, or as XML files depending on your server settings. (if the error file tries to download without an XML extension, you must save with .XML in order to open and read them).</div>
