Hi,
=20
There's an error in the Installation Guide for Windows.  The .dll =
should be
in WINNT/system32 (for win2k though).
=20
Hope this help

Objet : [Mapserver-users] first time user - IIS, WindowsXP, binary
installation difficulty


I have downloaded installed the win32 binary (4.0) on my winxp machine. =
(I
see that only Windows 2000 is mentioned...should it work at all on =
WinXP?)

The problem is that Mapserve.exe is happily sitting in =
c:/inetpub/scripts
and various dll seem to be in the Windows directory. =20

But I get an error message that gdal11.dll is not installed (or =
available)
and that reinstalling may fix this problem.  But gdal11.dll is there in =
my
Windows directory.  I also received a mesage that some other dll file =
was
missing, but I confirmed that it too was in the Windows directory. =20

I could try reinstalling, but I'd like to understand the problem too.

What do I need to do here to get this thing working in a rudimentary =
way?
thanks!

Miles
