[Mapserver-users] Fw: Error installing MapServer

[Mario Servin]

Dear Ed,
    There were some touches on the folder path I had to adjust but finally I
have the demo_init.html working, or so. I can see the map,etc. Now there is
something weird when I try to make a refresh or zoom or anything else that
goes after, again I got the : "msLoadMap(): Unable to access file.
(C:\Documents and Settings\mario\MyPages\itasca\demo.map)"!. I am checking
the submitted string to see what happening but I am pretty sure it's again a
matter of paths.....
    Regards,
                    Mario

anonymous Web user, which is by default set to IUSR_machinename.  You need
to make sure that (a) that path is in fact where the demo.map file is, and
(b) that the IUSR_machinename account has permission to read that file.
