[mapserver-users] WMS server error. Invalid layer(s) given in the LAYERS parameter

The error means you're asking for a layer in you WMS request that doesn't exist in the service. Basically it's not defined in the mapfile. I'd guess you have a typo someplace.

Subject: [mapserver-users] WMS server error. Invalid layer(s) given in the LAYERS parameter

I am not sure if I double-posted this - if so - apologies!


I installed MS4W a few days ago to put together a small proof-of-concept.
I've been through the tutorial, which I got to work with a little tweaking.
When I attempt to use an Oracle spatial table, I get a MS server error:
Invalid layers(s)... error - which gives me little indication of where I am going wrong.

Can anyone spot a problem here? I am running out of hair to pull out.

I have the Oracle client installed on my local machine and am attempting to draw a map from a spatial table on a local vm on which I have Oracle Spatial running (10g).

I tried OGRINFO using the Oracle login credentials and table name - with immediate success.

mapserv -v shows that ORACLESPATIAL is a valid option

GetCapabiltiies contains no warnings

The map file is very simple - I have tried at least one hundred variations. 

The data table has a SRID (though I have other tables with SRIDs and tables without). I've included the SRID in wms_srs and I have excluded it. I am beginning to believe the problem lies elsewhere - but have no idea what approach to use to find it, other than stabbing in the dark.

The map file contents are listed below.  Thanks for any advice/pointers you can offer.
