[mapserver-users] WMS rendering

Hello,
I'm experimenting the use of Mapserver as WMS and I'm encountering some 
problems on map rendering. I'm using a shapefile as a map source and 
it's a map of points (generated by a csv using ogr2ogr - Could I use 
directly csv with Mapserver? I don't know). I can't get the rendering of 
this map using for example QGIS or this URL in the browser (which I hope 
it's correct):
http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/home/francesco/shared/mapserver/wms.map&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.1.1&REQUEST=GetMap&STYLES=&SRS=EPSG:4326&BBOX=9.2990,43.0105,9.4894,43.0524&WIDTH=500&HEIGHT=300&FORMAT=image/png&LAYERS=test&

This is the mapfile:

               SIZE 0.0019
           END
       END
     END
END

Any suggestions? Are there any errors in the mapfile? Or am I wrong in 
the procedure?

Thanks,
Francesco
