[Mapserver-users] Problem with raster images

[Martin Sarsale]

Ed: I don't have the TFW file, but the TIFF is geoTIFF. 
Can I build the TFW from the geoTIFF? or I should recompile mapserver to use the geotiff?

You need to have the geographic reference information to go with the TIF so MapServer knows how to locate it geographically.  If you don't have such a file, you need one.  If you do have such a file, could you post the contents?  It's a six-line text file.
