Hi,<br>
<br>
I have installed mapserver cgi version 5.6.5 on debian squeeze and when I use the following code
<br>
<a href="http://geo.salud.gob.sv/cgi-bin/mapserv?MAP=/var/www/geominsal/pages/client/geominsalmapfile.map&SERVICE=wms&VERSION=1.1.1&LAYERS=Centroamerica&REQUEST=GetMap&SRS=EPSG:8913&BBOX=377424,%20226446,%20642627%20,369542%20%20&FORMAT=image/png&WIDTH=800&HEIGHT=600">http://geo.salud.gob.sv/cgi-bin/mapserv?MAP=/var/www/geominsal/pages/client/geominsalmapfile.map&SERVICE=wms&VERSION=1.1.1&LAYERS=Centroamerica&REQUEST=GetMap&SRS=EPSG:8913&BBOX=377424,%20226446,%20642627%20,369542%20%20&FORMAT=image/png&WIDTH=800&HEIGHT=600</a><br>
<br>
I get the error <br>
getString(): Symbol definition error<br>
<br>
I remember with an older version I had the same problem and fixed adding SymbolSet in my symbols.sym file but now it seems it is not the problem.<br>
Please if someone knows the possible problem let me know some ideas about how go out this error message. When I run mapserv in
<a href="http://geo.salud.gob.sv/cgi-bin/mapserv">http://geo.salud.gob.sv/cgi-bin/mapserv</a><br>
I get the message<br>
No query information to decode. QUERY_STRING is set, but empty. <br>
So it seems mapserver is running <br>
<br>
greetings,<br>
<br>
