Cool Marvin!
You have successfully set up your mapserver.
 
This,
"I got the error "CGI Error 
The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of
HTTP headers. The headers it did return are:"  And no header is shown at
all.
    I read that I have to get the following:  No query information to
decode. QUERY_STRING is set, but empty."
 
is not an error message. It is supposed to do this. For more information
search the list archive on your error., this is an acceptable response.
 
You should now follow the steps in the demo package, to set up mapserver
mapfile/templates to get all cooking.
Thanks,
Gayathri

Dear Gayathri,
    Thanks for your answer. I followed your advise and got the LIBPQ.dll
from PostGis. This solved the "not found" message but still when I use a
browser to see some answer from MapServer, i.e. trying to browse
http://localhost/Scripts/mapserv.exe" I got the error "CGI Error 
The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of
HTTP headers. The headers it did return are:"  And no header is shown at
all.
    I read that I have to get the following:  No query information to
decode. QUERY_STRING is set, but empty.
    Regards,
                Mario

Hi Marvin:
 
The mapserver you downloaded has Postgres included and requires this dll,
"LIBPQ.dll" and hence the error (7).
 
You can find it at ,
 
http://postgis.refractions.net/download.php
<http://postgis.refractions.net/download.php>  as, libpq.zip Unzip contents,
copy the libpoq.dll to your windows system directory and register it.
 
HTH,
Gayathri

Hi all,
    I am having errors with the installation of MapServer 4.0. I followed
the steps:
1-Downloaded the binary MapServer 4.0 for Windows. My platform is Windows XP
with IIS 5.0. 
 
2-Extract the files to C:\Documents and Settings\mario\MyInstall\MapServer
 
3-Copy \Proj to C:\Proj
 
4-Add C:\Documents and Settings\mario\MyInstall\MapServer\lib to the path
variable of my Windows.
 
5-Create the virtual directory Scripts of my Default Web Site because it was
not created. I pointed it to the folder IIS C:\Inetpub\Scripts.
 
6-Copy mapserv.exe to C:\Inetpub\Scripts.
 
7-Opened a command prompt window in C:\Inetpub\Scripts and typed:
mapserv.exe. I got the following error: "This application failed to start
because LIBPQ.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this
problem."
 
8-tried to execute from the browser and get the following error: "CGI Error
The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of
HTTP headers. The headers it did return are:"  And no header is shown at
all.
 
    Can anybody help me on how to proceed to get a correct installation?.
    Regards,
                Mario
