Hi,

mapserver tells you what's wrong:
> msLoadMap(): Unable to access file.
> (/home/sangitas/softwares/ex1/world_mapfile.map)

as your online-resource contains 'mapserv.exe' i think you are working
on windows. The path to your mapfile looks like unix-path. On windows it
should look like

c:\path to your mapfile\yourmapfile.map

regards, Jörg
