Hi,

I'm trying MapServer for the first time and doing something
wrong because all I get is a blank
page<https://dl.dropbox.com/u/1735137/MapServer_firefox_chromium.png>
in
the browser with:
http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/var/www/teste.map&mode=map
The computer is running Ubuntu 10.04 with UbuntuGIS-unstable repository.
The map file is located under the Apache folder (/var/www/teste.map) and
trying to load a PostGIS layer.
This is the content of my map file:
--------------------------------------
MAP
  NAME "World map"
  SIZE 500 500
  UNITS meters
  IMAGECOLOR 28 28 55
  IMAGETYPE png
  EXTENT -180 -90 180 90
  PROJECTION
    "proj=latlong"
    "ellps=WGS84"
  END

  OUTPUTFORMAT
    NAME png
    DRIVER 'GD/PNG'
    MIMETYPE 'image/png'
    IMAGEMODE RGBA
    EXTENSION 'png'
  END

  LAYER
    CONNECTIONTYPE POSTGIS
    CONNECTION "dbname='bd_ceam' host='localhost' port='5432'
user='consulta' password='*******' sslmode='disable'"
    DATA "geom FROM 'sch_sig'.'wd_paises' USING UNIQUE gid USING srid=4326"
    NAME "wd_paises"
    TYPE POLYGON
    END
    EXTENT -180 -90 180 90
  END

END
--------------------------------------

Any clue of what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks,
