<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">It seems as though my top level settings in my mapfile are being ignored. No matter what I put as projection, the output doesn’t change (unless it's an invalid projection). Changing the values of EXTENT doesn't change anything either, as my map always starts zoomed out very far. I also have not been able to make my base layer output as anything other than jpg.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I have a feeling that this is related to an invalid /tmp/ location in the mapfile. I have not been able to write the location of the /tmp/ folder (it's on the root of my c: drive) in a way that mapserver will use it.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Apart from these things, everything works fine. I've been able to sort of counter-act the projection ignoring by telling mapserver that the layer's projection has</FONT> <FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Courier New">lat_0=-49 when in fact, it is in epsg:43204 meaning lat_0=49</FONT><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I've attached my mapfile.</FONT>
