[OpenLayers-Users] Mapserver and Openlayers - Pink Tiles

[Chris Adams]

Try using wget to download one of the tiles, mapserv will often put 
error messages in place of the image (i.e. maybe your paths to mapserv & 
the map file are correct). Also, you need to specify each layer by name 
when you create your OpenLayers.Layer.MapServer, or at least I have not 
found a way that works to turn them all on regardless.
