Giorgio,
Your mapserv does not have support for GIF images so you need to make
sure that you map and symbol files does not reference any. I believe the
standard demo.map does.
So ...
you need to change all the GIF references to PNG and convert all the GIF
files to PNG. See:
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?MapServerDemo
for more info.
