[Geomoose-users] Problem using Firefox Page Info to debug Mapfile

[Jim Klassen]

That is your error message.

Either it is a WMS request and it wants to download the error message or, less likely, if none of your local layers are working, it could be mapserv.exe is not recognized as a cgi by the web server.

The first case is caused by the WMS spec sending responses as a wms unique content type instead of as text/xml so the browser isn't aware it in fact could render it.

In the past I was to be able to paste the link from Firefox -> Page Info into another tab and see the MapServer error message.  In my current Firefox (version 13) I am not able to get the MapServer error message instead Firefox asks me to save mapserv.exe somewhere.
