Thanks Steve.

I had tried both, PNG8 and PNG24 but no luck. I am using MapServer 5.6.5 as I'd 
already installed the same version in couple of machines before and I did not 
get any problem. Could there be any other issue that I missed/overlooked?

Try PNG8 or PNG24 (assuming this is 6.0).

Hi all,

I am trying to set up a new MapServer in a Ubuntu 10.04 machine. I 've installed 
and configured all the necessary/required components (including libpng-1.2.18). 
While configuring MapServer, I have included libpng package as well and my 
./configure shows: 

configure: checking where PNG is installed...
checking for png_init_io in -lpng... yes
        using libpng from system libs.

However, while I check ./mapserv -v, I could not find OUTPUT=PNG and am getting 
the error: msPostMapParseOutputFormatSetup(): General error message. Unable to 
select IMAGETYPE `PNG'.

I am not sure what went wrong during installation/configuration. I checked mail 
archives but could not find the exact solution (but have tried for some of the 
solutions found in Web). Please let me know if you have resolved this problem.

Thanks,
Mukesh
