AW: AW: [mapserver-users] Mapserver Projection Errors

I tried the suggestions offered above. Sadly, none of them get rid of the
error. There are no spaces or hidden characters at the front of the
projection string; they are formatted exactly like the examples. Removing
the apparently redundant 'towgs' parameter has no effect. Splitting the
projections string into separate arguments has no effect. Copying the
projection string from the /usr/share/proj/epsg into the mapfile, or copying
the mapfile projection string into the epsg file has no effect. I also put a
link in /usr/local/share/proj to /usr/share/proj, just in case our proj
installation was looking there. Nothing gets rid of the error. Also, using
Andreas' working example of the 'tmerc' projection also generates the error,
although (as noted earlier) using the "init=epsg:31468" form does not.

Once again, the bounding box in the resulting XML capabilities file is being
reprojected correctly as far as I can tell, so it looks as though
projections are working but this error is being thrown anyway. I'm going to
cross my fingers and hope that it can safely be ignored unless there are
other suggestions.

This is drifting away from Mapserver proper, but is there a way to tell
where Mapserver/GDAL/Proj.4 are expecting to find their input files,
particularly the epsg file? Or is there any sort of misconfiguration that
might produce an error like this? I'm pretty much stumped at this point.
