Hello Stefan,
just an idea, might be this is a problem of the assigned directory rights.
Check if within the path to the raster data for every directory the rights
are set to "x".

  Thank you Steve for this hint,

  I renamed the *tfw to *.wld, but the mapserver also stops with the error
message

  readWorldFile(): Unable to access file. Unable to open world file for
reading.

  The cygwin mapserver accepts the *.tfw files for *.tiff without any
problems.

  Mmmh
