first time mapserver install, error on empty query

[Tara Athan]

Thanks for your patience...

I found libgdal.so.1 in /home/alttwois/local/lib

I created the script named mapserv as follows

  #!/bin/sh
  export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/home/alttwois/local/lib"
  exec /home/alttwois/public_html/cgi-bin/mapserv.real

On running ./mapserver -v, I get the same error message as before

/home/alttwois/public_html/cgi-bin/mapserv.real: error while loading 
shared libraries: libgdal.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such 
file or directory

My e-mail delivery has been unreliable lately, so I am asking for
return receipts from all my email messages.
OK'ing the return receipt lets me know that my message was delivered.
Thank you.
