How did you add geographic reference information to your TIFF so
MapServer knows where it is in the world?  You need to have created
either a GeoTIFF with the coordinate info in the TIFF itself, or a world
file with a TFW or WLD extension to go with it.

Hello,

=20

i have got a problem with the display of a tiff-image. Mapserver shows a
white map (and produces a white .png), but navigation is possible, the
square on the refenenz map is ok and scale/scalebar also. There is no
difference if the tiff is black/white (1 bit) or 8 bit, it never shows
an i get no error message from mapserver.=20

When i use another tiff from another project it works!!

=20

The tiff was made with IrfanView (no compression, 256 Colors (counted
16), 8 Bit):

=20

Here a part of my mapfile:

=20

LAYER

    NAME "Hintergrund"

    DATA "Stadtplan.tif"

    TYPE RASTER

    OFFSITE 1

    STATUS ON

END

=20

Thanks for your help!

Olaf
