virtual spatial data fails

[Pagurek,Debbie [NCR]]

Kevin,
try to test this with shp2img and see if that works. If you do get an
image output as expected, then you probably have a permissions problem
with the internet user. What platform / server are you working with?
I am currently experiencing this problem with Windows 2000 Server with
IIS5. I'm trying to point to a .csv file and I can't get my mapfile to
work, but ogrinfo and shp2img command line work fine.
 
Then I set up a little php file to take mapserver out of the equation
entirely and just used php and odbc to connect to the data and it fails.
So - it's a permissions problem, but I still haven't figured out how to
fix it.
 
What is the error message that you're getting?

I am trying to add a virtual spatial data layer to my project and
failing!  I have created my DSN, and tested it successfully with
ogrinfo.  I then added the following to my mapfile:
 
  LAYER
    NAME "Permits"
    GROUP "Permits"
    CONNECTION "<OGRVRTDataSource>
    <OGRVRTLayer name='permitsummary'>
    <SrcDataSource>ODBC:@Data_txt</SrcDataSource>
    <SrcLayer>permitsummary.csv</SrcLayer>
    <GeometryField encoding='PointFromColumns' x='X_COORD' y='Y_COORD'
/>
    <GeometryType>wkbPoint</GeometryType>
    </OGRVRTLayer>
    </OGRVRTDataSource>"
    CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
    DATA "permitsummary"
    METADATA
      "wms_srs"    "88888"
      "wms_title"  "Permit Points"
    END
    STATUS on
    TOLERANCE 5
    SIZEUNITS pixels
    TYPE POINT
    CLASS
      NAME "Permits"
      COLOR 255 0 0
      OUTLINECOLOR 0 0 0
      SIZE 10
    END
  END

 
My map will not draw....any ideas?
