Daniel et al.,

thanks for the feedback. Due to your mapfile, I could figure out the 
problem. It is the SHAPEPATH, which prevents the display.

         NAME 'DEMO'
         EXTENT -180 -90 180 90
         IMAGECOLOR 255 255 255
         IMAGETYPE PNG
         INTERLACE TRUE
         SIZE 900 450
         STATUS ON
         UNITS DD
         SHAPEPATH 'data/'
         FONTSET etc/fonts.txt

If I take the line away, it works fine... unfortunately I can't query 
anymore the local layers.... Yes, yes, as always: one problem solved, a new 
one generated... :-)

Any suggestions for that one?

Thanks a lot for your valuable and fast help.

Best wishes,

Stefan

Layer type should be set to RASTER but if you set it to POINT then<br>
MapServer will change it back to RASTER internally.  I was unable
to<br>
reproduce the problem, there must be something missing at the map<br>
level.  Also note that and the wms_srs metadata value should 
be<br>
"EPSG:4326" in uppercase but that didn't seem to have an impact
in this<br>
case.<br><br>
I attached below a mapfile that does work for me.  You should be
able to<br>
isolate the problem if you compare it with yours.<br><br>
