Sun Mar 10 15:31:18 PDT 2013

Hi Jeff,
i tried to remove :

'<input type="hidden"
>name="map_web_imagepath" value="/var/www/mapserver/tmp/">

 <!-- MapServer Template -->
<html>
<head><title>MapServer Hello World</title></head>
<body>
<form method="GET" action="/cgi-bin/mapserv">
<input type="submit" value="Click Me">
<input type="hidden" name="map" value="/var/www/mapserver/hello.map">
</form>
<IMG SRC="[img]" width=400 height=300 border=0>
</body>
</html>

and change method from POST to GET and it  works.
If i use method POST it seems it doesn't works.

<!-- MapServer Template -->
<html>
<head><title>MapServer Hello World</title></head>
<body>
<form method="POST" action="/cgi-bin/mapserv">
<input type="submit" value="Click Me">
<input type="hidden" name="map" value="/var/www/mapserver/hello.map">
</form>
<IMG SRC="[img]" width=400 height=300 border=0>
</body>
</html>

msOWSPreParseRequest(): OWS error. POST request is empty. 

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Francesco
