<div>This is an old error, search the archives and you'll get dozens of hits on it, and in many of them you'll find me saying not to use that version of mapserver downloaded from the mapserver homepage. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>That version has a smal executable that relies more on dll's, and I assume has some kind of compiling problem which prevents it from working on many Windows machines. It's caused problems for quite a few people including myself.

<div>and grab the 4.4.2 windows binaries from there ... you may want to try the new 4.6 version.</div>
