[mapserver-users] Error on click

[Rahkonen Jukka]

Hi,
You ask "What is this? and my answer is that it is an impolite request for help because you do not tell us anything at all about what you have been trying. However, I guess that you have a book "Beginning Mapserver: Open  Source GIS Development" from year 2005.  Your problem may be related to security fixes which has been introduced after that. Read at least these
http://mapserver.org/development/rfc/ms-rfc-56.html
http://mapserver.org/mapfile/validation.html
There are some security things to add if your hello.html and hello.map are like the ones in here http://www.mail-archive.com/mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org/msg11457.html
I have not used that kind of templating myself but I would start by adding magic strings "MAP" and <!-- MapServer Template -->.  A nice surprise would be if the author has published a corrigendum. You can try to ask him, politely.
