[mapserver-users] What does this error message mean?

[Hankley, Chip]

??? I do this all the time w/ no problem:

...
SHAPEPATH "D:\DATA\"
...

LAYER
  NAME "HILLSHADE100"
  MAXSCALE 1000000
  MINSCALE 500000
  TYPE RASTER
  STATUS DEFAULT
  TILEINDEX "D:\temp\HILLSHADE\HILL100.shp"
  TILEITEM "Location"
END

...

And LOCATION is the fullpath to the images.

Windows, Mapserver.exe (CGI) and PHP MapScript, IIS.
