I can only say to you something about the second problem.
You need to define a projection for the map. Also A WMS layer have to
contain a projection. It may be in this format:

    PROJECTION          #ED50 / UTM zone 33N
      "init=epsg:23033"
    END

Where the init is referred to the epsg code.
Give a look at this site for the available projection-codes:
